Looking for innovative programming, outstanding projects, and social action inspiration? Here you will find great ideas to replicate in your sisterhood or to enrich and inspire you in your own programming.
The Sisterhood Program Exchange features projects that are exceptional in terms of attendance, fundraising, or impact to their synagogues and/or communities. If you are intrigued by the brief program descriptions on the Pacific District page and want more information, consult your latest Chai Line for the link to the Google file.
Programs honored by WRJ and by our WRJ Pacific District are found in WRJ & PD Award Winners. The WRJ Or Ami "Light of My People" Award for Special Achievement in Programming recognizes exemplary social justice, community service, and educational programming that serves as a model for other WRJ Districts and sisterhoods. The WRJ Pacific District Eleanor Kretzer Kavod Award recognizes and honors innovative programming, projects, and significant contributions to social action exemplifying the spirit of tikkun olam. The Eleanor Kretzer Kavod Award is presented biennially at the Pacific District Convention to the sisterhoods whose projects and programs best meet the rigorous selection criteria.
Meantime, The Bubbe Project will give you some tools to enjoy memorable experiences with your grandchildren, whether you’re only seeing them on Zoom or are fortunate enough to be in the same room during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Finally, we sincerely hope you’ll join our effort to combat homelessness in your community by participating in A Place Called Home: The Senior Homelessness Project. We’ve provided a tool-kit of projects of every size and scope aimed at easing the growing number of Americans and Canadians in their 60s, 70s, and 80s who are finding themselves without a place called home.
