The Detroit Women's Division
for Israel Bonds paid tribute to
the - 10th anniversary of Israel
last week by introducing its
first "Women of Valor"—those
who have bought and sold a
total of $100,000 in Bonds. They
are Mesdames Torn Borman,
Philip Helfman, Joseph Katchke,
Rachel Kurtzman and Charles
Milan.
Designated in Hebrew as
"Aishet Chail," these Israel
Bond leaders met with Betty
Coles, Negro leader who just
returned from Israel, who re-
corded their names in a "Wo-
man of Valor" Book which lists
over 100 leaders throughout the
United States.
The "Woman of Valor" is the
pinnacle of the CHEN, which
is a membership of all women
who buy or sell $2,500 in Israel
Bonds. Each $2,500 attained
earns one CHEN charm, repre-
senting one of the tribes of Is-
rael. When all 12 charms have
been secured ($30,000), that
woman becomes a member of
the "Advance Guard of CHEN."
The next step up is the "Woman
of Valor," or $100,000 classifica-
tion.
Mrs. Helfman is the Women's
Division chairman. Mrs. Katchke
and Mrs. Milan are honorary
chairmen.
