Günther Loewenstein, residing in Jerusalem, Israel, seeks compensation for harm to profession suffered during the Nazi era in Berlin, Germany. He was employed at Deutscher Makkabikreis E.V., a Jewish sports organization in Berlin, from November 1, 1936, until March 31, 1939, when the organization was liquidated by Nazi authorities. He held positions including head of office and general secretary and was involved with Zionist organizations like Bar Kochba, Makkabi-Hazair, and the Palestine Office. After losing his job, he emigrated to Palestine. He was noted for his work after the November 1938 pogroms, organizing the emigration of key members. His compensation claim was made under the BWGoeD, and the URO offices in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv handled the case.
