ABOUT THE JEWISH ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE FOUNDATION

The organization's work is philanthropic in nature, and is focused on restoring and erecting Jewish public buildings and holy sites. Its activities are planned with the intention of serving to benefit members of all faiths and creeds and promoting inter-racial tolerance and understanding of local heritage.
