Why a Woman's Gift?
Because you care.
Because you want to make a difference. Because a woman’s gift is a gift from the heart.
When we make a financial commitment to the Jewish Federation in our own name, we serve as role models. We are counted. And, we are stronger as a community.
From generation to generation, Judaism has emphasized tzedakah, (justice, often embodied in acts of charity), not as a choice, but as a responsibility. The Women’s Philanthropy Division fundraising efforts make it possible for each of us as individuals to step forward and do our part. Together, we can do so much to respond to the urgent needs of those who cannot provide for themselves.
As women continue to join men in courtrooms, board rooms and operating rooms, we can also join them in assuming equal responsibility for saving, sustaining and enriching Jewish lives. We all share pride in our community's strong communal fundraising efforts which provides financial resources to our agencies.
The Greensboro Jewish Federation Women's Philanthropy Division operates as a vital resource by educating, inspiring and celebrating Jewish women though speakers, workshops, and programming. The Women's Philanthropy Division helps develop Jewish leaders dedicated to the Federation mission and serves to offer continuity and connectivity to Jewish women of this and future generations.

A word from Leslye Tuck, 2012 Women’s Philanthropy Campaign Chair:
I am honored to represent the Women’s Philanthropy Division of the Greensboro Jewish Federation for the 2012 Campaign. The thought of serving as Campaign Chair was very intimidating, but I am really enjoying working with all the wonderful people in the community who have been a part of the campaign for years and are so generously sharing their knowledge with me. I know that if we all work together, we will be successful in raising the funds needed to support those that need our help. I am proud to be a part of such a generous and committed community.
Men’s Campaign Chair, Neil Lutins, and I hope you will join us for the many exciting Campaign programs designed to engage, educate and inform. With your help, we can continue Federation’s legacy of doing a “World of Good!”
