Join us on April 11, 2024 as we celebrate 12 years of Jewish Women’s Fund of Atlanta at JWFA Impacts! We are thrilled to honor Enid Draluck for her outstanding leadership. Click here to learn more about this exciting event and how you can support Enid and JWFA!

For the past 12 years, Jewish Women’s Fund of Atlanta (JWFA) has been the first and only organization in Atlanta with a mission dedicated to social change for Jewish women and girls. In that time, we have grown exponentially. Today, we’re proud to say that JWFA has allocated over $2 million in grants to enable women and girls in the Jewish community locally, nationally, and in Israel to reach their strongest potential. This success comes from both financial investment and passionate leadership.

No one personifies passionate leadership more than Enid Draluck.

Thanks to Enid, along with investing in organizations working toward social change, JWFA also invests in women’s personal development and empowerment through our Agents of Change Training (ACT) program. Her commitment to supporting women who can harness their energy and find their strengths to make a lasting difference is why JWFA is delighted to honor Enid Draluck at JWFA IMPACTS! on April 11, 2024.
