The Combined Jewish Appeal of Greater Boston closed its 60th anniversary campaign here tonight with a “Salute to Workers” dinner at which general chairman Louis P. Smith announced that the campaign had received a total of $4,624,000 this year. The figure represents $103,000 more than was raised last year and the campaign total is the highest since 1951.
Funds raised by the Combined Jewish Appeal support a network of 201 agencies, including the United Jewish Appeal, the Associated Jewish Philanthropies of Greater Greater Boston and scores of national, overseas and Israel institutions.
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.
