Hear from our members
“I think having real discourse on current issues we are facing is a great thing, particularly in a world where we live in soundbites and tweets.” – Beth Morrison, member since 2018 |
“It felt so good to be with an intimate group of women, some I knew and some who were new to me, and have a conversation about things that matter in the context of good food, warm hospitality, and genuine openness. I feel grateful to be part of the IWF So Cal - Trusteeship where I can be included in an evening that was so meaningful and personal. I look forward to getting more involved and to friendships I know will deepen over time. So thank you for bringing us all together.” – Rabbi Laura Geller, member since 1990 |
“While we flow in and out of the seasons of our lives, IWF So Cal - Trusteeship remains firmly rooted, offering us opportunities to cultivate diverse relationships with one another, as we share experiences, inspiration, and the power of connection. We come together as women leaders, connecting through our stories, our thoughts, and our needs as women.” — Gayle Tauber, member since 1995 |
