A record total of $12,225,000 in contributions and pledges has been raised by the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies of New York in its five-month campaign to meet the current maintenance needs of 116 member health and welfare agencies serving 350,000 persons, Louis M. Loeb, chairman of the drive, announced here.
At a final report luncheon at the Hotel Plaza officially closing the drive, Mr. Loeb declared that the “community has responded with unprecedented generosity to over-subscribe the campaign’s minimum goal of $12,000,000 largest over sought by the Federation for regular operational needs of its affiliated institutions.”
