About Women's Philanthropy
Welcome to the world that Jewish Women build together ...
Women's Philanthropy provides a place in the Portland Jewish community for all women to come together to promote, enhance, and celebrate Jewish life. We are committed to building a Jewish community that is welcoming, engaging, and demonstrates the impact a woman makes by having her voice heard.
By perpetuating the ideals and values of Jewish heritage and tradition, and by providing opportunities through programming and leadership development, we strive to have all women more deeply understand the significance of their philanthropic decisions. Women’s Philanthropy of the Jewish Federation of Greater Portland invites you to get connected.

A gift in your name
When you give, you demonstrate the importance of tzedakah to you. You take your place in the long line of women who have carried on this fundamental Jewish tradition, and you inspire others to translate their Jewish caring into giving.
