Women <strong>of</strong> Vision & Women <strong>of</strong> Vision Too<br />
The Women <strong>of</strong> Vision Society was created in 1996 in order to ensure that a permanent, restricted endowment fund would forever be available to<br />
enhance the quality <strong>of</strong> life for <strong>Jewish</strong> women and their families in <strong>Greater</strong> <strong>New</strong> Haven. One hundred women contributed $1,000 each to establish the<br />
original endowment from which grants have been made annually since 1998. The Women <strong>of</strong> Vision Society Too initiative was launched in 2002 to<br />
allow additional members <strong>of</strong> the community the opportunity to help increase the monies available for grants which support scholarships for <strong>Jewish</strong><br />
women to study in Israel or do graduate work in a <strong>Jewish</strong> related subject, speakers for <strong>Jewish</strong> women’s programming and projects <strong>of</strong> concern to the<br />
<strong>Jewish</strong> home and family. Since 1998, over $110,000 has been distributed in grants.<br />
