Review for JOFA, New York, NY, USA
The JOFA provides a very important service to the Jewish community. I found their website to be extremely informative, including free in-depth articles on many important aspects of Jewish religious life for women (covering hair, etc.) They included a range of opinions (not just one perspective) and this was very valuable because this kind of information (in-depth discussion of Jewish law for women on topics like hair covering, birth control etc._ isn't readily available to Orthodox women. I discovered a wealth of information on various issues relevant to me as a feminist living within the Orthodox community. I also very much appreciate the work that they are doing on behalf of Agunas and other Jewish women trapped by abusive men hiding behind Jewish law.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
do a tremendous amount to help oppressed women within the Orthodox Jewish community, including women whose husbands have disappeared and women whose husbands won't give them proper divorce.
