JNDC co-sponsored an event at The Ark’s new building at 6450 N. California in Chicago on Sunday, July 28, 2024, focusing on female empowerment in business. Organized by The Jewish Woman Entrepreneur, and co-sponsored by JUF Professionals Network, the event drew over 40 Orthodox Jewish businesswomen.

Suzanne Muchin, Northwestern Kellogg School of Business, delivered an inspiring talk on achieving strategic impact in high-stakes conversations. JNDC Executive Director Ellen Doppelt opened the program and highlighted JNDC’s commitment to economic vitality in the community.

JNDC’s photo exhibit, “Then and Now: 10 Decades of Jewish Community in West Rogers Park,” was on display at The Ark and drew much interest.
