Detroit, January 31, 1958

Dear Friend:

With the approaching Holiday of Passover the Moies
Chetim Organization of Detroit is continuing its function as
in bygone yeors.

The privilege of serving the less fortunate, who have
to depend for their sustenance upon ,relief giving agencies
throughout the year, is a most gratifying undertaking.
Many worthy families, who are not known to the City
Welfare or any private organization, are also among our
recipients. It is with the utmost kindness and -understand-
ing that every assistance is given and each case is served
in confidence. Only the members of the distribution com-
mittee keep the records in order to ovoid any form of
duplication.

MOIES CHETIM IS AN AGE OLD INSTITUTION.
HELP US TO CARRY ON SO THAT NO JEW IN OUR
COMMUNITY SHALL BE WITHOUT THE NECESSITIES
FOR PASSOVER.

Make your contribution this year as generous as your
own funds and heart will dictate. Due to the unemploy-
ment and refugee situation your contribution to this fund
must be substantially above last year's giving. By answer-
ing this appeal NOW, you will not only lighten the work
of the Committee of volunteers, but help to make the
grants more generous.

Checks for food and Matzo Orders are moiled two
weeks preceding the Holidays. The amount of money avail-
able governs the distribution.

Lost yeor we served approximately 2,000 persons
who otherwise might not have had the necessities with
which to observe Passover. Thank you for helping to make
this possible. In behalf of the Committee members and
all those who shall benefit by your generosity, we wish
you and all your dear ones a very Happy Passover. First
Seder, April 4, 1958.

Sincerely yours,

Moies Chetim Organization of Detroit,

l fairy Caen,

President
