Our Shared Legacy is Cool Site for May 2011

For the first time in its history, American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) is making a collection of its historic records and photographs from the Holocaust period available online. The website enables the public, especially Holocaust survivors and their families, to perform searches for themselves or people they know on a database of more than 500,000 names and to view and identify photos from 14 countries where JDC operated during and after the war.

You can visit the website at www.jdc.org/sharedlegacy.
