Jewish Women’s Fund of Atlanta is celebrating a big milestone! We were thrilled to join together on April 27, 2022 for our Tenth Anniversary Celebration, featuring honoree and keynote speaker Dr. Rochelle Walensky, CDC Director, in conversation with CNN Senior Medical Correspondent, Elizabeth Cohen.

It’s hard to express the immense pride and deep gratitude we feel as we reflect on Jewish Women’s Fund of Atlanta’s 10th anniversary celebration last night. What an honor to host CDC Director, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, in conversation with CNN’s Elizabeth Cohen. We were so fortunate to have them join us for such a timely and candid discussion. Dr. Walensky was genuine, relatable, and humble as she shared the challenges of work/life balance with a 24×7 profession as a Jewish working woman, wife, and mom. She models so much of what Jewish Women’s Fund of Atlanta strives to achieve in our mission of social change for Jewish women and girls, most importantly the equal opportunity to reach your full potential. While JWFA’s first 10 years have been high achieving, at the same time it’s just the beginning of much critical social change impact ahead.

If you missed the opportunity to join us live, we are happy to make the recording available to you. Complete the form below, and you will receive the recording link via email.

What began as the dream of three incredible Atlanta women has expanded exponentially over the past decade to encompass a wide array of initiatives including life-changing grant making, innovative programming, our Agents of Change Training program, educational symposiums and webinars with leading experts from around the world, and organized trips to communities impacted by our work and mission, both in Israel and domestically. We do all of this and more as a collective – bringing women from across Atlanta together to amplify their impact, elevate their voices, and change lives.

We invite you to join us as we continue to act as a catalyst for change by collaborating with us as a Trustee, or by making a donation to JWFA that shows your enthusiastic commitment to creating equal opportunities for Jewish women and girls to reach their full potential.

On behalf of our founders, Ilene Engel, Carol Cooper and Sara Franco; our Chair and Vice Chair, Linda Davis and Lisa Freedman; our Development Chair Martha Berlin; and our team of professionals, we thank you for your ongoing trust, support and generosity.

Here’s to many more years of life-changing impact,
