Canadian Hadassah-Wizo

HADASSAH is the most powerful body of women in Canada, in one of the
greatest humanitarian movements of the century. “It is only when we serve
others, and know that we are needed, that life becomes rich and meaningful.”

HADASSAH is the Women’s Zionist Organization of Canada, an active partici-
pating member of the Zionist family. It has fraternal affiliation with the Canadian
Council of Women, and Canadian Association of Consumers, and is also rep-
resented in the Canadian Jewish Congress .The membership numbers 16,000
members.

HADASSAH through its Public Relations and Publicity programme serves as
interpreter for Hadassah and Israel to the non-Jewish public, as well as to its
own members.

Message from the President of Hadassah-Wizo
Council of Winnipeg

1968 marks another anniversary, the Golden Jubilee Year of Canadian
Hadassah-Wizo. Members of this organization, the largest women's organiza-
tion in Canada, look back with pride to the accomplishments of the past
fifty years.

In working to raise funds to maintain the State of Israel, we have at
the same time done much to increase Canada’s trade.

Advertisers, and members alike, must be aware that dollars raised
here, are deposited in the Bank of Canada, on which the State of Israel
draws to purchase Canadian goods needed in their economy.

We therefore thank you, advertisers, for helping us in our mission, to
help maintain the Homeland of the Jews, while stimulating the economy of
our own nation, Canada.

Mrs. B. Schwartz,
President,
HADASSAH-WIZO COUNCIL OF WINNIPEG.
