Hadassah Foundation Responds to Surge in Domestic Violence Against Women

July 1, 2020

With a dramatic increase in calls to Israel’s domestic abuse hotlines since the COVID-19 pandemic took hold, the Hadassah Foundation quickly launched a COVID-19 Response Fund, co-Chaired by Tracey Spiegelman and Audrey Weiner, to help the leading women’s organizations battle this alarming phenomenon. While the Foundation, “an investor in social change to empower girls and women in the United States and in Israel,” has targeted its grants for this year toward gender equality in positions of power, board members realized they had to respond to this need as well. https://ejewishphilanthropy.com/hadassah-foundation-responds-to-surge-in-domestic-violence-against-women/
