Joyce Edelson, President


Welcome to NA’AMAT USA Greater Los Angeles Region (GLAR) Website.

My name is Joyce Edelson and I am the President of the Region (GLAR). The Region represents five chapters in the San Fernando Valley and two in the city of Los Angeles. The GLAR Board meets the first Wednesday of each month. We support the goals of NA’AMAT USA by planning events and activities which bring women together in friendship while raising funds for women, children and families in Israel. Some activities have been a Speaker Series, Luncheons, Auctions and Tours of interesting places in Los Angeles. We put the “fun” in fundraising. One very special event is our annual “Membership Celebration” where we honor the most dedicated members of each chapter and the Region. We also support Aviva Family and Children’s Services, an organization which provides supportive housing for women and children in Los Angeles, by providing needed items. I hope you will consider joining one of our outstanding chapters. We are all working together for a brighter future.
