Apply to Participate in the 2020 March of the Living

Applications for Miami's 2020 Teen March of the Living close Monday, September 23. Apply now before it's too late. The impactful six-month educational program features a two-week journey to Poland and Israel. The teens spend a week in Poland visiting important sites of Jewish life and history. The experience culminates with the participants marching with teens from around the world from Auschwitz to Birkenau as a powerful reminder of the 6 million Jews murdered during the Shoah. A week in Israel, where teens observe Yom HaZikaron (Israel’s Memorial Day) and Yom Ha’Atzmaut (Israel’s Independence Day) concludes the journey, providing students with a deeper connection to Jewish peoplehood. The March of the Living is a program of the Center for the Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE), a Federation subsidiary agency. Click here to apply.
