Henrietta Szold and Her Legacy: Hadassah and Youth Aliyah
Henrietta Szold devoted herself to public service
in the late Nineteenth and early Twentieth Centuries.
At a time before women could vote,
she organized and managed charities in Baltimore,
translated and edited major theological works
for the Jewish Publication Society and Jewish Theological Seminary.
She brought modern medicine to the Middle East,
saving the lives of thousands of Jews, Arabs, and others living in and around Israel.
