“The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation will spend $10-million over five years to provide emergency aid to impoverished Holocaust survivors, says The Baltimore Sun.
The fund, established by the Baltimore foundation, will be administered by the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany. The conference estimates that 144,000 Nazi victims live in North America and that 37 percent of those in the United States live at or below the poverty line, five times the rate for other older people.
Rachel Monroe, the foundation’s president, said the fund will help about 10,000 Holocaust survivors in North America meet basic food, shelter, and medical needs.”
On a lighter but related note, from The American Joint Distribution Committee’s YouTube Channel, here is a video clip of  Don Weinberg, the Chairman of The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation entertaining an Israeli audience with his surprisingly talented singing skills!
