We can never give sufficient praise to all the donors and volunteer project coordinators of yizkor book translations and to the remarkably talented and devoted volunteer staff of the Yizkor Book Project, without whom this site would not be possible. If you appreciate the results of the work by these volunteers, please help them by donating to the projects at http://www.jewishgen.org/JewishGen-erosity/v_projectslist.asp?project_cat=23 as well as to the JewishGen General Fund, the last item on the donation page.

Please contact me personally if you would like to start a new translation project or donate funds for the translation of an article of your ancestral town in the Pinkas HaKehillot volumes.

Have a wonderful holiday.
