Smith, 1932-1950 Chairman, Deceased 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.
