Germany’s largest bank donated some $3 million to two Jewish organizations. The money came from the sale of a gold reserve stemming from World War II. Deutsche Bank said internal research showed the gold was possibly stolen from Jews during the Holocaust. The money will be divided between the World Jewish Restitution Organization and the March of the Living, which sponsors trips for Jewish youths to former concentration camps.
