Remembering
Adina Abramowitz
Adina Abramowitz, our beloved Managing Partner, passed away on December 13th, 2023.
Adina was one of the most extraordinary people we knew in a world full of wonderful people. She could reach for the stars and never lift her feet off the solid ground. She fought for the things she believed in without unnecessary conflict.
She brought justice, love, and support to tens of thousands of people through her work in the CDFI industry, her leadership in the Reconstructionist Jewish community, her community work, and countless good deeds. Adina was a friend and mentor to so many and memories of her strong will and kindness will be cherished.
May her memory remain forever a blessing.
