Poles in Hamtramck making donations for Polish relief, September 14, 1939. When the hostilities broke out in Europe, many Detroiters did what they could to support the Allies in the Second World War. Long before America became formally involved in the war, Detroit’s large ethnic communities held campaigns and fundraisers to send relief abroad, where many still had family and friends. Above, members of the Polish community gather support after the invasion of Poland by Germany. |
