My First Hadassah Convention
By Shira Dabush-Kersz
Having spent my formative years, and my two sisters who were born in Israel and still live there, there is no place closer in my heart than Israel. Coming to my first convention with my Grandma, Diane Issenberg, was a treat, but I didn't suspect what was waiting for me.

SPEAK OUT: Tell Congress to Support Reproductive Choice Two years after Roe v. Wade was overturned, access to reproductive care is under attack for women across the country. Restrictions on reproductive choice and care threaten women’s health. Join us in urging lawmakers to pass legislation to protect choice, contraception and fertility treatments.
OUR MISSION IN ACTION: Recommitting to Our Pride as Jews and Zionists “Summer is supposed to be a time to relax, but for Israel and the Jewish world, this is a year with no summer break,” Hadassah National President Carol Ann Schwartz writes in Hadassah Magazine, touching on the alarming rise of antisemitism, Hadassah’s #EndTheSilence campaign and the upcoming elections.
Giving to Hadassah Every contribution made to Hadassah is meaningful and it is understandable for Hadassah’s donors to ask, “Where does my money actually go?” Example, our new EndtheSilence campaign is designated to “Hadassah,” as this allows us the flexibility to fund the most urgent needs related to this issue.
