Review for JOFA, New York, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have experience volunteering for and being active in many Jewish organizations, as well as organiations with some feminist ideology. However, JOFA's turning to me in the year 2000 to ask me to lecture was only the first indication of the inclusivity of JOFA and its constant search for redefining needs of Jewish women. Since then I have been part of brainstorming, projects, conferences--at the same time as being active in other organizations. JOFA IS THE MOST MATURE of them all. There is ongoing development and reassesment of direction, with very wise decisioins being made--thus leading jewish women and answering their evolving needs.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

the ability to develop from an organization in its "adolescence"--meaning strident, etc. to an organization which works cooperatively within the Jewish community, leading the way in a wise, mature manner.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every six months

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Professional with expertise in this field & I provided professional guidance for specific projects, I have lectured at each conference in the past decade, I consult with board members when I have an issue I wish to raise. I also read all the material JOFA sends out.
