Why a Woman's Gift

Women's giving
is fiscal evidence of the influence women exert as full partners and decision-makers in the family, the community, and the nation.

Women can impact Jewish political power: U.S. government leaders count the number of givers when they measure support for local communities and Israel.

Women have an obligation to practice the mitzvah of giving tzedakah in their own right.

Money is the influence; the more women give in their own name, the greater their credibility and power as leaders and policy makers.
