MY LOVE AFFAIR WITH HADASSAH

By: Fran Sachs

I confess! I have been having an affair of the heart and soul for the past 57 years, in public no less. With whom, you ask? Why, Hadassah of course!

How does one feel the joy of purpose and connection with an organization that for 112 years has brought our brethren in Israel life saving health care and continues to do medical research that benefits all humanity?

The answer, of course is via PLANNED GIVING. Your gift, certain sums of money monthly, yearly, or in your will enables Hadassah to budget for necessary mundane services, eg. lights, air conditioning, purchase of medical supplies, bandaids, etc. These monies permit Hadassah to do what it does best without worrying about the upkeep costs of running two hospitals, youth villages etc. Hadassah can then provide the finest, most up to date medical care and continue to do research which will benefit all mankind.  Click here to read more


A Note From The Finance Department

As a result of the increased volume of checks to National and the Geo Areas due to the crisis campaign combined with year-end activity, as well as the continued fine tuning of the Salesforce automation, we are still processing 2023 gifts. Therefore, the summary tax letters might not yet reflect all 2023 contributions. We plan to finish getting through the backlog in the next few weeks.
