This Passover, help us
make it possible to celebrate
another kind of freedom.
Freedom from a pandemic.

As the coronavirus pandemic continues to rage around the world,
there’s reason for hope. And no country has offered more hope for
what life might be like again than Israel, which has led the world in
immunizing its people.
Magen David Adom, Israel’s paramedic and Red Cross service, has
played a major role in this success. MDA has treated tens of thousands
of stricken Israelis, administered Covid tests to more than 4 million,
and vaccinated Israel’s most vulnerable populations, including all its
nursing home residents.
When you support Magen David Adom,
your gift has an immediate impact in
helping Israelis — today and every day.
Make a gift today. Pesach kasher v’sameach.

Holocaust
Memorial Center
Commemorates
Yom HaShoah
The worldwide Holocaust
memorial project “Unto Every
Person There is a Name” is
designed to perpetuate the
memory of the Six Million
— among them 1.5 children
— murdered while the world
remained silent.
The project offers the
opportunity to remember them
as individuals — one at a time
— through the public reading of
their names on Yom HaShoah
during a Holocaust Memorial
Center community broadcast
Thursday, April 8, at 7 p.m. at
holocaustcenter.org.
You can help to restore the
identity and dignity of the
victims of the Holocaust by
participating in the virtual
name-recitation ceremony
by memorializing those who
perished.

registration, a member of the
HMC staff will send you a list of
names to read and instructions.
