Jewish Exponent
A new 2010-11 calendar, "Letter for Letter," contains letters and mementoes that piece together stories from the fabric of Jewish heritage of the Greater Philadelphia and southern New Jersey area. It is produced by the Philadelphia Jewish Archives Center, now a special collection at Temple University Libraries' Urban Archives. The goal of the calendar is twofold: to raise money toward a $1.8 million endowment that will support costs associated with the ongoing processing and staffing of the collection and to spur new generations of Philadelphia Jews to share the rich stories of their lives while gathered at their holiday tables and beyond.
