Americans in Vienna Aid Stricken Austrian Children
In postwar Vienna, American women form the Children's Friendship Fund to aid nearly 3000 crippled and handicapped children. They supply sleeping bags, a school bus, playground equipment, meals, nurseries, and therapy materials with support from CARE, JDC, and NCWC as funds come mainly from the American community in Austria. The effort integrates with local aid and reflects long-standing American goodwill.
