Acquisition

The collection was donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in 2012 by Rachel and Leah Drozdowicz, the grandaughters of Cypa Gorodecka. This is an accretion to a previous donation.

Scope and Content

The collection consists of correspondence, documents, Yiddish newspapers, and photographs relating to the experiences of Cypa Gorodecka and her family and the Drozdowicz family in prewar Janów Podolski and Warsaw, Poland, and after the war in Israel and Poland. Some of these materials may be combined into a single collection in the future.
