The League of Jewish Women in Germany (German: Jüdischer Frauenbund, JFB) was founded in 1904 by Bertha Pappenheim.
[6] The philanthropic contributions from local women's organizations supported centralized social outreach as well as the maintenance of relationships with international collaborators.
The organization made combating antisemitism a main priority, even though it put less emphasis on the issue as many Jewish men's groups.
The JFB provided social and educational resources for Jewish women and strove to end what was defined as "female slavery", prostitution, and moral degradation in Germany and abroad.
[2] The JFB, like many other woman's organization in the BDF (German: Bund Deutscher Frauenvereine), mobilized to assist the war effort on the home front.
