The goal was to update our look and our language to more effectively communicate with a younger Jewish population. We have increased member engagement with online education programs and use social media extensively to support an ongoing conversation with a new and even wider audience. And we have created eMembership for women who are short on time. Hadassah's new tagline-the power of women who DO-expresses who and what we are. It speaks to a century of "practical Zionism" and captures the dynamism and spirit of Hadassah women. |
