Portugal’s Jewish community is holding its first central fund-raising campaign in 30 years. Israel’s ambassador to Portugal, Shmuel Tevet; the world president of Keren Hayesod, Avi Pazner; and 150 members of Portugal’s 1,000-member community attended a Feb. 27 event in Lisbon to celebrate the occasion. The campaign is part of ongoing efforts to restructure the communal organizations of Portugese Jewry.
