Jewish Professional Women's Initiative

Women engaged in a variety of business and professional pursuits have discovered the Jewish Professional Women's Initiative (JPWI). The program includes periodic networking nights, a monthly downtown study lunch, and volunteer opportunities. More programming is being added all of the time. The events give professional women an opportunity to network, connect socially, be enriched Judaically and to collectively make a world of difference in our community.

Real Estate Industry Group

The Real Estate Industry Group welcomes all professionals in any type of real estate. Those who are not in the field but are interested in our events are welcome to attend as well. Many of our events are commercial in focus, but we are developing programs that will also engage those in the residential arena and welcome any suggestions or ideas!

Most of our programs are open to all community members, but there is a special minimum gift speaker's series for young adult donors of $500 or more.
