New museum to showcase the women who helped build Israel

Very recommendable! Dedicated to the sheroes of Israel! As they say besides many heroes is a heroine and vice versa!

Unfortunately, the article does not contain a link to the website of this museum. It appears that the physical museum has not yet opened in Haifa, Israel.

"Maybe you’d start with Golda Meir (I blogged here, here, and here about her), Israel’s first and only female prime minister. Or the tragic and courageous spy Sarah Aaronsohn and paratrooper Hannah Senesh.

The list would include physician Vera Weizmann, the first First Lady of Israel, who helped establish Chaim Sheba Medical Center, now the largest hospital in the Middle East; and second First Lady Rachel Yanait Ben-Zvi, who taught Jerusalem women how to grow vegetables, milk cows and make cheese so their husbands could go out and build the state. ..."
