Indeed, the Ladies Commission helped to generate the required funds in a great measure. An array of very suitable undertakings, among them cinema presentations, brought in a quite meaningful sum, which was sent off to Zamość and was indeed dedicated to the exhumation of our martyrs.
In June 1947, it is agreed to memorialize our [city of] Zamość with an artistic picture, which will serve as a memorial symbol. This decision is resolved. The picture was created by the artist, Moshe Feigenblum. His designated picture became the permanent emblem of our society.
The third leadership is elected at the assembly of May 9, 1948. The following are elected:

During this entire time, the Society dedicated itself very much to the altruistic support for those landsleit who were in need. Help during periods of illness, or other incidents of misfortune; help in getting settled; this was given in the form of assistance not to be repaid, and also in the form of loans. There was no request, whose character was such, that the Society did not respond to and help with those resources that it had.
During all these years, the Society observed the Yizkor Day in memory of our martyrs. Year in and year out, an assembly of mourning was held, where eulogies were given, and there also was a religious component, performed by a Cantor.
In memory of our city, which was cut down, The Society also unveiled a plaque on the monument to the 6 million martyrs, at the Tabalada Cemetery. (November 27, 1949).

The Society also participates, with material assistance, for cultural and philanthropic institutions such as: The Jewish Hospital, 'Ikuf,' Yiddish Folk Theater, 'Ift' School and Educational Institutions, The Yiddish Scientific Institute – YIVO, and others.
Apart from various undertakings, cultural acts, holiday get-togethers, in the last few years, the Society conducts celebrations of the anniversary of the establishment of the State of Israel.
In the last years, the primary concern of the Society was the realization of publishing Pinkas Zamość. Despite the fact that there was a special commission that had this as a goal to do, the entire Society was drawn into this work. There was no get-together – community evenings, or private celebrations – where collections were not taken up for the Pinkas fund.
At a second opportunity, previously, this part of our work has already been talked about extensively.
