PRESIDENTS’ MESSAGE<br />
Dear Friends,<br />
September 2011/Elul 5771 – Tishrei 5772<br />
Volume 14, Number 1<br />
As I write this message, it is only early August, but<br />
Ilan’s new board of officers has already met and has<br />
begun planning our programs and fundraisers <strong>for</strong> the<br />
2011-2012 Hadassah year. Next year we will be<br />
celebrating Hadassah’s 100 th birthday. In honor of this<br />
monumental occasion, Hadassah will be holding its<br />
Centennial Convention in Jerusalem October 15-18, at<br />
which time the Sarah Wetsman Davidson Hospital<br />
Tower will be dedicated. For those members who have<br />
never visited Israel and/or have never attended a<br />
Hadassah convention, this is the time to experience<br />
both! Additionally, <strong>for</strong> those women who have not yet<br />
become life members themselves and/or have not given<br />
the gift of life membership to their loved ones, 2011 is<br />
the year to do so. Hadassah’s Centennial Life Member<br />
celebration special is only $100 <strong>for</strong> the remainder of this<br />
calendar year and will end December 31. You don’t<br />
want to miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime offer!<br />
Looking ahead to this September, Sharon and I hope to<br />
welcome many members at our opening program, which<br />
will be held on Wednesday, September 21. The holiday<br />
of Rosh Hashanah will begin a week later on<br />
Wednesday, September 28. Just as we celebrate the<br />
Jewish New Year with the hope that we will be granted<br />
goodness and sweetness in the coming year, so we<br />
celebrate the beginning of the new Hadassah year with<br />
the hope that we will be successful in all our goals <strong>for</strong><br />
the coming year. With your help, we look <strong>for</strong>ward to<br />
celebrating another meaningful and fulfilling year in<br />
Ilan!<br />

Hadassah Hospital Linda Silverstein and Mimi Meltzer, Education VPs<br />
The new Sarah Wetsman Davidson Hospital Tower will be dedicated in October 2012 at the Ein<br />
Kerem Campus of Hadassah during the Centennial National Convention in Jerusalem,<br />
The Tower is named after the mother of Bill Davidson. Sarah was a devoted supporter and member<br />
of Hadassah. Bill Davidson pledged $75 million toward the building. He was the owner of the<br />
Detroit Pistons and built his <strong>for</strong>tune through Guardian Glass.<br />
The building includes 14 stories above ground and five below, 500 beds, 60 intensive-care units,<br />
and 20 underground operating rooms, as well as an ultramodern heart unit. The newest<br />
technologies will be used to unlock the mysteries and secrets of many diseases.<br />
Hadassah has always been dedicated, not only to the medical concerns and needs of patients, but<br />
also to helping them and their families understand new technologies, research, and the art of<br />
healing.<br />
For nearly 100 years, Hadassah Hospitals have been leaders in all aspects of medicine, research,<br />
and patient care in Israel. Now, with the addition of the Tower, so much more is feasible.<br />
All who have reached out and supported the Tower should feel a special part of this wonderful<br />
medical center. Don’t we all wish that we could be there <strong>for</strong> the dedication?<br />

Fundraising Linda Hertz and Sandy Stein, Fundraising VPs<br />
Thank you <strong>for</strong> your contributions to a very successful Yard Sale this past June. We raised more<br />
than $700 to help Hadassah fund its projects. We hope to sponsor a special night at a local<br />
restaurant in the fall and will again print our “Passover Cookbook” (3 rd edition) in the spring. If<br />
you have any suggestions <strong>for</strong> a place to gift wrap this holiday season, please give us a call.<br />
We encourage you to support our upcoming programs, trips, and game night; to purchase Hadassah<br />
cards and certificates as well as Entertainment Books; and to attend “Hadassah Presents” on<br />
November 6.<br />
We are always striving to put the “fun” in our fundraising. If you have any suggestions <strong>for</strong> an<br />
activity or a clever or “must-have” item that we might sell <strong>for</strong> a profit, please let us know.<br />
We look <strong>for</strong>ward to seeing everyone at our functions!<br />
