Women's Campaign

The past few years, Delaware women have contributed nearly half of the total raised annually by the Federation's Annual Campaign!  Your gift as a woman expresses your personal commitment to Jewish life, in Delaware and around the world.

Lion of Judah

The Lion of Judah is an internationally recognized designation for women who personally contribute $5,000 or more to the Jewish Federation Annual Campaign during a given year.  Women who reach the Lion of Judah level with their campaign gifts are entitled to receive a gold pin in the shape of the Lion of Judah. Introduced in 1972 by the Miami Federation, thousands of women around the world proudly wear the Lion pin in recognition of their commitment to the Jewish community.  The Lions of Judah gather during the year for an educational and fundraising event.
