Today we pause to remember the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust.
We honor the survivors, the victims, and the enduring resilience of the Jewish people.

As Hadassah women, we remember—and we commit. Hadassah has long played a vital role in preserving Holocaust memory and advancing education, including advocating for the Never Forget Education Act, ensuring future generations learn the lessons of the Shoah.

May we never forget. May we always bear witness. And may we continue to stand for dignity, healing, and hope.

Today many of our area leaders gathered in Venice for the Hadassah Southern California Board Retreat.

While much of the country is bundled up in snow and cold, our board enjoyed sunshine, ocean air, and an inspiring day together by the beach.

The retreat & the first board meeting, led by HSC President Lisa Hoffman, was filled with meaningful learning, important Hadassah procedures, and thoughtful conversations. We also shared inspiring activities focused on delegation, collaboration, clear communication, and strengthening our connection with one another and our members.

Each board member received a leadership “toolbox” filled with essentials because building a strong, successful team starts with having the right tools in hand.

We’re energized, aligned, and looking forward to a successful year ahead as we continue to support the incredible work of Hadassah. ❤️💙

Today was the Hadassah Southern California Winter Conference, Miracles of Hadassah! It was wonderful to see so many come out to support Hadassah and our incoming 2026 Board. Mazel tov to all, and a special congratulations to our HSC President, Lisa Hoffman.

Nearly 150 attended, enjoying time to reconnect, shop our holiday boutique (with 25% donated back to Hadassah!), and win some amazing baskets. Our speakers were fantastic and truly highlighted the many miracles of Hadassah.

Our keynote speaker shared powerful stories of how Hadassah Hospital and the organization continue to support IDF soldiers and Israeli civilians as they heal and rebuild after October 7 and beyond.

We were honored to have Past National President Ellen Hershkin install our incoming Board. As the menorah candles were lit, Lisa lit the Shamash, symbolizing the light and leadership she will bring to our region in the year ahead.

What a meaningful day. Proud, grateful, and excited for all the light Hadassah will continue to bring into the world this coming year.
