Project Short DescriptionStatusView
1921 Jewish Refugees at the Romanian BorderIn progress
Coordinator:     Jewish refugees, who previously were engaged in crafts and trade, were forced out of their residences by the war, the revolution, banditry and the pogroms of 1919-1920. Their houses were destroyed, and the majority of the refugees were disabled, physically and mentally, exhausted, and absolutely unsuitable for any kind of work. The refugees lived in extremely difficult conditions, huddling in close quarters of synagogues or in private houses that were damaged and completely unfit for living. Some of the children were in somewhat favorable conditions, being placed in orphanages where minimal help and security were provided.
