Registration has opened for the Leo Martin March of the Living (LMMOL), April 8-23, 2018, an impactful educational program for teens studying the Holocaust. Teens visit Poland for one week and participate in an international march from Auschwitz to Birkenau as a powerful reminder of the millions of Jews murdered during the Shoah. The journey concludes with one week in Israel providing a deeper connection to Jewish identity and the Jewish people. Need-based scholarships are available through Federation, the Center for Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE) and Friends of the MOL. For more information and to register, click here.
