“Communities and countries and ultimately the world are only as strong as the health of their women.” MICHELLE OBAMA
The Ezras Noshem (Ladies’ Aid) was founded on August 9, 1913, by Mmes. Cohn, Miller, Spiegel and Adler. By May 1922, they had collected $12,000 to put a down payment on a building destined to become Toronto's first Mount Sinai Hospital. Dorothy Dworkin, seated centre, was one of four Ezras Noshem representatives on the Hospital's inaugural Board of Directors. Mount Sinai Hospital opened in 1923.
