Accession consists of photographs documenting UJA Federation's community grant allocation ceremonies from 1997, 1999 and 2003. The photographs feature representatives of the Community Planning and Allocations Department and various representatives of chosen community organizations.
Administrative History
The Community Planning and Allocations Department was responsible for awarding financial grants to chosen community organizations and projects. They were involved in the selection and allocation processes.
Under the former Toronto Jewish Congress, community grant allocations was handled by the Social Planning Department, which was responsible for selecting the winning applicants, and the Budget and Finance Department, which was responsible for distributing the grant money. When the Jewish Federation of Greater Toronto was founded, the two functions merged and became the Community Planning and Allocations Department. Under UJA Federation of Greater Toronto, the two functions were once again separated into the Strategic Planning Department and the Budget and Finance Department.

Scope and Content
Series consists of Benjamin Brown’s architectural plans and drawings of significant buildings designed or renovated for Toronto‘s Jewish community, including proposals that were never implemented. Contained within are renovation plans of the Beach Hebrew Institute synagogue, an ark design for the McCaul Street Synagogue, and the complete designs of the Henry Street Synagogue. The last of these projects is of particular significance, because it was the first synagogue in Toronto designed by a Jewish architect and was one of Brown‘s largest commissions. Drawings of the Primrose Club (a Jewish men’s club) and the Brunswick Talmud Torah Day School, as well as plans of Camp Yungvelt (a Jewish summer camp) are also included. Additionally, several preliminary sketches of synagogue facades are contained within.
The majority of these drawings are on tracing or drafting paper, several of which are in colour, and the remainder are either blueprints or drawn on cardboard. Floor plans, elevations, sections, foundation plans and sketches of building exterior facades and interiors are included. Additionally, there are drawings of windows, doors and synagogue arks.
Physical Condition
Several drawings and plans are in poor condition. See file level descriptions for further details.

Admin History/Bio
The Ontario government was putting pressure on the Jewish cemeteries spread around Toronto to clear up the disorder in the burial grounds to ensure a system of perpetual care. The cemeteries were approached with this in view. In the end, through the efforts of Al Ginsburg of Beth Tzedec, the Dawes Rd. and Jones Avenue properties were reorganized, a permanent fulltime groundskeeper was engaged (A.M. Levy) and adminstration was improved. The other cemeteries remained outside of this new organization which was named the Amalgamated Dawes Road Trustees. Some of these made their own arrangements. Canadian Jewish Congress lent its administrative help to the Amalgamated Dawes Rd. Trustees, hence this committee.
