The opening as it read in 2010

Jewish Colonization Association ( JCA , in Yiddish ייִק"אַ) was created on September 11, 1891 by the Baron Maurice de Hirsch .1 Its aim was to facilitate the mass emigration of Jews from Russia and other Eastern European countries, by settling them in agricultural colonies on lands purchased by the committee, particularly in North and South America (especially Argentina ).2 Colonies were funded within the United States in southern New Jersey , Ellington, Connecticut ( Congregation Knesseth Israel ), and elsewhere. [1] A Canadian Committee of the JCA was established in November 1906 to assist in the settlement of the thousands of Jewish refugees fleeing Russia, and to oversee the development of all the JCA settlements in the country.3
