- History / Biographical
- Mr. Stan Cytrynbaum, a Montreal lawyer, was president of the CJC Committee for Ethiopian Jewry. He was also active in the Jewish Vocational Service, AJCS (Allied Jewish Community Services, now Federation CJA), and other Jewish organizations. Along with Edit Kuper and Mark Zarecki, who participated in all aspects of the Committee, under Cytrynbaum's direction the Committee for Ethiopian Jewry raised funds to provide aid to Ethiopian Jews in Ethiopia and Israel and to help in their absorption once they emigrated to Israel or Canada. They also worked actively to enable them to emigrate. The committee disseminated information, held public meetings, arranged speaking tours of Ethiopian leaders, organized petitions and visits to Ethiopia, and sought Canadian government intervention. Cytyrnbaum was chairman of Canadian Friends of Ethiopian Jews in Israel, which, among other projects, ran the Ethiopian Jewish Heritage Centre, which trained young Ethiopians to become teachers and religious leaders within their community. Mr. Cytrynbaum is married to the former Sandra Wainberg, who was also actively involved in the plight of Ethiopian Jewry, so much so that the couple adopted a 14-year-old Ethiopian Jewish girl who lived with them and their three children for seven years. The Committee for Ethiopian Jewry was among the organizations which raised awareness in North America and Israel of the plight of Ethiopia's Jews. This helped to lead to the major airlifts of Ethiopian Jewry by the Israeli government - Operations Moses (1984) and Solomon (1991) - which succeeded in bringing approximately 8,000 and 14,000 people respectively to Israel. The CJCCEJ and its sister groups were also instrumental in aiding in the absorption of the Ethiopian Jews into Israeli society.
