Dear Friends,
Welcome to the 2018-2019 Sisterhood year! We are excited to share some news for the year ahead.
*Cici Hallegua and Mersedeh Navi joined our Executive Board.
Cici is Co-Dues Secretary and Mersedeh is Treasurer.
*With Rabbi Guzik’s help, we started a program for women working through life challenges.
A group experiencing separation or divorce is off the ground. If you are interested in spearheading a group facing a different challenge, please let us know.
*Our Second Annual Sisterhood Gala will celebrate Women of Valor on Sunday, November 18.
Our wonderful honoree is Danielle Salem-Kassin.
Please read through this issue of Scoop to see our August programs, social action projects and more! We hope you are having a wonderful summer and look forward to seeing you soon.
Warmly,
Lisa Pompan & Leslie Wachtel
