Supporting Women in Klal Work

Over the past 25 years, Aliza Bulow has traveled across five continents to support rebbetzins, educators, and communal leaders in dozens of cities.

Everywhere she went, she met women who were building programs, teaching, mentoring, and guiding families through life’s most sensitive moments. Yet despite the significance of their work, many were carrying these responsibilities largely on their own, often with little training and with even less recognition. Most lacked colleagues who truly understood their work or a network of peers with whom they could consult, collaborate, and learn. Few had meaningful opportunities for professional growth.

From those conversations, one thing became clear:

Women sustaining Jewish communal life need more than goodwill and dedication; they need training, support, mentorship, and connections with colleagues.

In 2018, Core was founded to provide exactly that.

Today, Core serves thousands of women across more than twenty countries, offering Torah-based mentorship training, professional development, and peer connections that strengthen the women who lead and sustain their communities.

Core amplifies the impact of individual women who serve in communal roles through targeted professional development, facilitated peer connections, and tailored support.

Core does this by:

• Training women through the MMC Fellowship
• Connecting women in global Communities of Practice
• Bringing women together with cross-field conferences
• Facilitating field initiatives that identify and meet communal needs
• Providing ongoing support, supervision, and resources
