Women’s Philanthropy

Susan Paletz | Director of Fund & Community Development

Looking to be inspired, connected, and meet new people?

Join the Women’s Philanthropy Group of Jewish Long Beach. Women of all ages are connecting and making a difference in the Jewish Community and the greater Long Beach Community. This past December, the WP group at their annual Chanukah party, collected food and gift cards for homeless teens in the Long Beach Unified School District. These teens are either living in their cars or motels with other family members. The non-perishable food items help the teens and their families with food insecurity. The gift cards will be greatly appreciated says the staff of the Long Beach School district to make the holidays a bit brighter for these teens.

Upcoming for 2024

Please Join the WP on Wednesday, January 17 at 5 pm for a no-host dinner at Tap24, near the Traffic Circle, and then walk the red carpet at 6 pm for the premiere of the 20th Long Beach Jewish Film Festival featuring the film, “Marrying Myself”.

All women in the community are welcome to attend this event and all other WP events. This year, we are introducing a new level of giving, The Pearl Society. Pearls are encouraged to give between $180 and $1,700 to be part of the larger Jewish Federation movement that helps support Jewish and global needs throughout the world.
