The Visionary Circles

The Visionary Circle is Elluminate’s key philanthropic initiative that brings together Jewish feminists, advocates, and philanthropists to help shape the future of Jewish women’s leadership in the US, Israel, and around the world.

As a Visionary Circle Member, You Will:

  • Expand Your Philanthropic Impact: Grow in your understanding of strategic philanthropy, grounded in Jewish values and through a gender lens, and contribute to systemic social change that addresses both local and global challenges.
  • Become Part of a Dynamic Community: Connect with a diverse community of women leaders who are learning about and engaging with a wide range of Jewish women changemakers and their organizations.
  • Shape the Future of Jewish Feminist Leadership: Participate in the selection process for the next cohort of The Collective, Elluminate’s Leadership Advancement Program, providing connections to a wide range of Jewish women leaders finding solutions to today’s most intractable challenges.

Each year, Visionary Circle Members select 10 Jewish entrepreneurial women nonprofit CEOs for the next cohort of The Collective, Elluminate’s signature leadership advancement program and global network.

The Visionary Circle begins in late fall with an orientation, education sessions and then breaks into three circles to review, interview, and select the next Collective cohort.

To date, The Visionary Circles have empowered 70 amazing women who are working to end the feminization of poverty, make the Jewish community more equitable, diverse, and inclusive advocating for gender justice, reproductive rights, women’s safety, and equality, and so much more.
