Historical NotesThe button is for the campaign of David Iszauk, who was the treasurer of the district in 1984-1985. B’nai B’rith McKeesport Lodge No. 573 was chartered on April 18, 1904. The organization was involved in a wide variety of community service and welfare activities. Henry Friedman was an early officer of the lodge. The lodge merged with the Pittsburgh Lodge in April 2000, to form the Three Rivers Unit No. 44. The lodge was part of B’nai B’rith District 3, which covered Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Donor Claire Iszauk is a lifelong resident of McKeesport and now a member of Temple B’nai Israel.
