Benjamin Levinson, Detroit Jewish financier, was the recipient here of the “Knight of Charity” award given annually to a prominent person selected by Friends of the Missionaries of St. Peter and Paul for personifying their motto of “union in family life with person-to-person charity.”
The award was presented also to a Catholic and a Protestant at a benefit dinner of the Founders of Maryglade College, a school of divinity. The three recipients of the award exemplify the Detroit community’s support of this project, it was emphasized.
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.
