Members of our Congregations:

It has been an honour to have had the opportunity to work for the wonderful worldwide organisation of the Women’s International Zionist Organisation (W.I.Z.O).

The time has come for me to resign my long-standing positions of President and Treasurer of the New Zealand Federation.

The request for volunteers from the New Zealand community to carry on with the New Zealand branch has been without success. Therefore, those that wish to carry on with donations may send them directly to Israel.  

I would sincerely like to take the opportunity to thank all of the Committee, members and contributors both past and present for their continued support given over the years, to ensure that the needs of those in Israel were received.

With my sincere thanks once again.

B’hatzlacha

Lorna Henrietta Orbell

National President & Treasurer,  W.I.Z.O New Zealand Federation
