- Admin History/Bio
- Mount Sinai Cemetery Association (MSCA) is responsible for providing services to the cemetery owners at Mount Sinai Memorial Park. Some of these services include grass cutting, grounds maintenance, and interment services. The beginning of Mount Sinai Memorial Park in 1934 is attributable to a non-Jew, Reuben Phillips. In 1934, he applied to the Ontario Department of Health to establish a cemetery for “members of the Hebrew faith.” After the registration of the cemetery was completed in 1935, Reuben became the first manager of the cemetery and started to subdivide the cemetery lands and sell sections to Jewish organizations. A management committee (MSCA), composed of delegates from the organizations owning cemeteries in Mount Sinai Memorial Park, was formed in 1943 to co-ordinate the management of the cemetery. The first president of MSCA was Louis Palter. In 1989, a new administration building was built.
- As of today (2022), Mount Sinai Memorial Park serves seventeen synagogues and organizations, including Beth Lida Synagogue, Beth Radom Congregation, Beth Sholom Synagogue, Canadian Hebrew Benevolent Society, Chevra Mishnais, Congregation Rodfei Sholom Anshei Kiev (Kiever Synagogue), Farband (JCMI), Independent Friendly Workers (JCMI), Jewish Canadian Veteran's Memorial Park Association (JCMI), Ozrower Mutual Benefit Society, Pride of Israel Sick Benefit Society, Shaarei Shomayim Congregation, Shaarei Tefillah Congregation, Sunnyside Cemetery Association, Toronto Independent Benevolent Association, Workmen's Circle (Arbeiter Ring), and Young Men's Hebrew Association (YMHA).
- Scope and Content
- Series consists of records documenting the administration and operational activities of Mount Sinai Cemetery Association. Included are meeting minutes, by-laws and regulations, financial statements, burial records, lists of delegates and executives, and documents and architectural drawings relating to the additions and alterations to the administrative building at Mount Sinai Memorial Park. Also present are a map of the memorial park and photographs featuring different cemetery sections and the opening ceremony of the new administration building in 1989.

- Admin History/Bio
- With the post-war expansion of Toronto's Jewish population, the original Mount Sinai Hospital on Yorkville Avenue became overcrowded, while its treatment capacities appeared ever-more outdated. By 1949, an improved economy made it possible to begin the necessary planning for a much large replacement hospital at 550 University Avenue. Although fundraising for the construction this facility was not the responsibility of the United Jewish Welfare Fund, many of its senior executives were also on the hospital's board. Also, the entire Toronto Jewish Community was to be canvassed for the funds to build it. The proven fundraising expertise of the UJWF, its donor lists, and the goals of its own annual campaign ensured that constant correspondence and cooperation between the two was both necessary for success and vital to the avoidance of campaign competition. The continued success and growth of community contributions to both was the outcome of this ongoing collaboration. The New Mount Sinai Hospital opened in mid-1953, while the campaigns to continue improving and expanding its resources continue to the present.
- Scope and Content
- Series consists of correspondence and occasional reports documenting the relationship between the UJWF and the board of the New Mount Sinai Hospital about the fundraising campaigns for the new hospital being constructed on Univeristy Avenue during the 1950s. Also included are two photographs of the new hospital. Files in this sub-series have been arranged chronologically.
