Alfred David Benjamin (August 9, 1848 January 8, 1900) was an Australian-born businessman and philanthropist. Benjamin immigrated to Canada in 1873 and entered into the wholesale hardware business with his father's financial backing. He became a partner in M. and L. Samuel and Company and, after the death of Lewis Samuel() in 1887, he became the leader of the company. His success in a variety of business ventures allowed him to pursue various philanthropic goals. His most important contribution was to the Jewish community in Toronto, Ontario. There he was the leader of the Holy Blossom Temple congregation and a major contributor to the new synagogue in 1897. ==See also== * Lists of Australians * List of people from Toronto * List of philanthropists 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alfred David Benjamin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
