Hadassah
Hadassah, the Women's Zionist Organization of America, is a volunteer women's organization of 300,000, founded in
1912 by
Henrietta Szold, American
Jewish scholar and activist to support practical Zionism at a meeting of a women's study group in New York City. The meeting took place around the time of the
Purim holiday, so the group adopted the name Hadassah, which is the
Hebrew name of the Biblical
Esther.
