Dear Sisters

Thank you very much for electing me to be the 90th President of our National Ladies Auxiliary. I am happy and proud that you have selected me. It is a privilege to represent you and I will do my best to make you proud.

I am very much looking forward to visiting as many Departments and Auxiliaries as possible, meeting the sisters and learning of how they implement our programs. I am also looking forward to attending the various military academies.

I believe that together we can increase our membership and the participation in the different programs of this organization. But we ALL must work hard in achieving this goal.

Now that covid seems to be over we can dream bigger, believe harder and inspire more people to join our GREAT organization. Our programs aim to help others such as our veterans, service men and women, children, and senior citizens.

But let’s not forget the National Museum of America Jewish Military History and all its wonderful programs and exhibits. If you are not a member, please join. Remember, your membership in JWVA does not include membership in our Museum. You can join on-line at www.nmajmh.org. The Museum is our legacy. You should be proud to belong to such a wonderful Museum. There were many Jewish men and women who fought in wars to keep our freedoms alive and they are remembered and honored there.

I look forward to working with National Commander Barry Lischinsky for both JWVA & JWV.

My theme this year is: DREAM/BELIEVE/INSPIRE - WE ARE UNSTOPABLE

Again, I am thrilled to be your President and to have the opportunity to represent you.

Loyally yours

Shirley Zak
National President
