Sarah Swartz chaired the local affiliate of the Army and Navy Committee of the National Jewish Welfare Board during World War II. The affiliate sought to bring a sense of Jewish life to the Jewish soldiers stationed at Camp Butner. One Passover, she organized a seder at Camp Butner. The kitchen help was comprised of German prisoners of war.
Sarah and Max were known as a very gentle couple. They never had children, but they were always together, usually holding hands.
Swartz was well read and active in Hadassah. She also contributed to the Ladies Aid Society 1946 cookbook:
