Articles about Esther Leibowitz and the Organization





This is an excerpt from an article written in teh 1970's by Jerry Lisker in The Jewish Press. The article has some inaccuracies regarding Esther Leibowitz's family.

"... Mrs. Leibowitz's Zion Dov Ber Torah Fund has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the orphaned and homeless children of Jerusalem. "For many children, the yeshiva is the only home they know", Mrs. Leibowitz said. "It is where they live and learn the traditions of Judaism. Many have gone on to be scholars and students." ... With funds she has raised, the yeshiva has grown. Monies are used to provide additions to the structure, for the purchase of teaching and medical materials and for buses, food and religious articles. Each child also receives a gift each year at Chanukah."
