Register Now for March of the Living

Registration for the Leo Martin March of the Living is now open. During the two-week trip to Poland and Israel, 100 students from Miami-Dade County join their peers from around the world, along with Holocaust survivors, to take a step back in time. A major highlight of the trip is a silent march from Auschwitz to Birkenau, a powerful reminder of the 6 million Jews who were murdered during the Shoah. The group then arrives in Israel in time to celebrate the joy of Yom Ha’atzmaut, Israeli Independence Day. Through support of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation and the Center for the Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE), scholarships are available. For more information and to register, click here.
