I should like to thank all those who have donated funds recently to the
project enabling the translation of the Minsk Book - Minsk Iyr va-aym
Minsk, the mother city.

So far we have translated nearly a fifth of this 1000-page 2-volume
collection of stories and reminiscences of a lost Jewish community.

I know many of you have an interest in Minsk, and it would be good to
see more of the book available in English.

We are hoping to work on adding to this early in 2011 and we need funds
now to ensure that we can make this a substantial addition.


You can see what we have already achieved at

You can donate funds on the Jewish Gen-erosity page
http://www.jewishgen.org/JewishGen-erosity/v_projectslist.asp?project


Please consider this urgently as we shall be starting work soon - and
we can only achieve this with your help.

Once again, many thanks to all who have contributed so far.
