Dear Broward Hadassah Sisters,
By the time you receive this eblast I will have been to Vienna, Austria for my grandson's Bar Mitzvah, and back. How do I have family in Vienna? Hadassah International which is how my son met his wife. HI is responsible for securing Friends of Hadassah throughout the rest of the world, and also some very special donors. Though the distance is great, because of HI my husband, Tom, and myself have had the opportunity to interact with a Jewish Community that survived total annihilation and grew since the Second World War.

Hadassah will be returning to in-person events and gatherings!
If your Hadassah chapter will be returning to in person events, local units are required to follow state and local laws and regulations, the current CDC guidelines and recommendations as well as the following Hadassah protocols in order to conduct activities in the safest and healthiest manner possible. Please note: applicable Florida law states that businesses operating in Florida may not require patrons/customers to provide any documentation certifying COVID-19 vaccination or post-infection recovery to gain access to or receive services from the business. These protocols have been mailed to chapter leadership. If you would like a copy of the protocols or have questions about implementing them, email floridarequests@hadassah.org.
