It will come to no ones surprise that the archival work at the JHM is expensive. Thanks to a startup grant from the Arizona Humanities Council we have begun the process. Talent has been generously donated, but the cost of archival files, boxes, computer and scanning equipment remains.

Each archival box that will preserve the precious letters, certificates, clippings and photographs can cost as much as $10.00 per box and the JHM archives will require a minimum of two hundred boxes.

The project is also in need of a laptop computer (Windows 7 with Microsoft Office software - 4GB or larger) as well as a large format HP scanner/printer.

If you would like to help save our Jewish history by donating to the Archive Fund an envelope is included in this newsletter for your tax deductible donation.

THANK YOU

NOW THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS.
A Message From The JHM President
Barry A. Friedman, M.D.

WHO WILL REMEMBER ME (or US)? This an unimportant question if I/we don't want to be remembered or simply don't care- one way or the other. Judging by conversations we have with visitors to the Jewish History Museum, most people think that they as individuals or we as a group should be remembered in some way, shape or form. But who or what is going to be the repository of that memory and in an accessible format?
