Dear friends, Please help the success of this project by informing the Jewish public about this new collaboration which will help preserve Jewish family trees and Jewish identity for future generations.
Today Beit Hatfutsot (Museum of the Jewish People) and MyHeritage.com announce a partnership to help preserve - for the future - digital information about the Jewish people. This partnership, with your help, will add millions of data elements to the existing multimedia database at the Museum. To participate: Go to the special MyHeritage.com page http://www.myheritage.com/BH to accept the terms and conditions and create a FREE account to start building your family tree. MyHeritage will periodically transfer the data to Beit Hatfutsot to update the database. You and your family are part of the history of the Jewish people. By sharing your family tree with the Museum, preserve your family's memory and history forever. Please help everyone learn about this project through providing information on your Websites, in your blogs, at your synagogues, Jewish schools, Jewish organizations and any other media or group that might be interested to learn about this project.
