Sponsored by the Jewish Women’s Roundtable, the Song of Miriam annual brunch has been held on the first Sunday in June since 1993. It brings together the Jewish community to recognize outstanding women volunteers.
Honorees are nominated by Jewish organizations and congregations in Oregon and southwest Washington. The women are recognized for their individual efforts and achievements and their dedication to Jewish life and values.
