Fund-raising drives are under way here with the Y.M.H.A. seeking $28,000 and the $25,000 campaign of the Montefiore Hebrew Orphans’ Home scheduled to begin in November.
The Jewish Peoples’ Schools on Sunday opened its drive for funds to carry on its educational activities. The Jewish Public Library is also seeking money and Peretz Hirschbein, noted author and playwright, will be the guest speaker at its campaign dinner.
The annual appeal for financial support of the Federation of Jewish Philanthropists will be launched the week of November 25 to December 2.
