The Brooklyn Federation of Jewish Charities was organized in 1909 by a small group of communal leaders and was a pioneer among community chests in this country. It has grown from the nine original affiliated societies to the twenty-five agencies which it now comprises.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
