The family of former Ambassador to England Joseph P. Kennedy today commemorated the death of their brother, Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr., by donating $50,000 to the Associated Jewish Philanthropies of Boston to be used for a project benefiting children. Three other charitable disbursements were made by the foundation, which bears the name of the young aviator who was killed three years ago in a military plane over the English Channel.
