In March of 1999, the Allied Jewish Federation Boulder Women's Center was no more than an idea germinating in the minds of a few Boulder women. These women believed that giving, learning and, "doing Jewish," was the logical next step in their journey towards repairing the world/tikun olam. The highly successful Boulder Women’s Center now hosts several exciting events.
Our annual women’s campaign event brings together 200 women from the Boulder/Denver community to celebrate community and the strength of a woman’s individual gift to the annual community campaign.
The Knitzvah Project brings together women to knit and schmooze all the while performing a mitzvah. Finished hats have been distributed in Israel, the Former Soviet Union, Argentina and locally to elderly Jews and chemo patients. A cooking group is in the works that will make delicacies to help stock freezers at our local synagogues who then deliver food to those in need.
If you are interested in upcoming programs or would like to get involved, please call the Boulder hotline, 303.316.6476 or contact Boulder@AJFColorado.org, 303.316.6476. Come join us!
