STEVEN SPIELBERG IS RIGHT ...
WE MUST ALL SUPPORT HOLOCAUST EDUCATION.
HERE'S HOW YOU CAN DO IT ...

Dr. Tanter
At JNF Dinner

During the Academy Awards last week, one billion people watched
and heard Steven Spielberg speak of the importance of teaching
the young about the Holocaust. Many people want to know "How
Can I Help?"

The Holocaust Education Coalition, a volunteer, non-profit coali-
tion, was formed last fall to promote Holocaust Education. It do-
nates Holocaust curriculums to schools that want to teach the
Holocaust but have no funds available to purchase the neces-
sary classroom materials.

The curriculum provided is the locally developed, nationally _rec-
ognized Life Unworthy of Life curriculum created by Dr. Sidney
Bolkosky, Dr. David Harris, and Betty Rotberg Ellias. Each class-
room set costs $350 and includes a teacher's manual, 30 student
textbooks, and a 62-minute videotape of testimony by Holocaust
survivors.

PLEASE Help us teach the lessons of the past to those who
will be guardians of the future. Help us by sending a check (tax-
deductible) payable to:

THE HOLOCAUST EDUCATION COALITION
4000 Town Center
Suite 420
