Last week at L'Chaim: Women Who Inspire, Federation's Women's Philanthropy came together to celebrate the women whose generosity, leadership, and commitment strengthen our community and Jewish life in Greater Washington.

The morning featured an inspiring conversation with acclaimed author Dara Horn, recognition of Robin Hettleman Weinberg as Greater Washington's 2026 Kipnis-Wilson/Friedland Award recipient, and heartfelt tributes celebrating the women who inspire us every day.

Thank you for joining us in honoring these remarkable women.

Over the past nine days, we’ve shared stories of children finding inspiration at camp, families building Jewish friendships, and young adults creating community around a Shabbat table.

Each begins differently, but the heart of every story is the same: Federation supporting the opportunities that make it possible.

We can only do this work because of your generosity. Today, October 30, is the last day of Match Moment. Give to support vibrant Jewish life, and your gift will be matched dollar for dollar.

Before we welcome Shabbat, will you help someone else find their place in our Jewish community?
