Formation of a Non-Sectarian Foundation for Refugee Children which will place in American homes children arriving here under existing quota laws from war-torn areas of Europe was announced today by Clarence E. Pickett, president, and Owen R. Lovejoy, executive director.
The Foundation is applying for incorporation as a charitable organization under the laws of New York State. In cooperation with the Catholic, Protestant and Jewish refugee agencies, the Foundation will care for children eligible to enter under existing quota laws but separated from their parents by reason of death, concentration camps or wartime conditions.
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.
