A nation-wide agency is to be perfected under the name of the Yeshiva College Women’s Organization, which has as its purpose the bringing of the message of Yeshiva College to wide circles of Jewish women, particularly to those affiliated with orthodox congregations.
The cooperation of the existing Jewish women’s organizations, sisterhoods, study circles and groups, as well as the enlisting of individual women into special groups will be sought.
