Memorial Project, 2010

The Memorial Project this year was shirts with each student's Living On person on it. The kids came up with this because they felt that Holocaust remembrance is two-fold; to educate so that it doesn't happen again, as well as to keep the stories living on. These kids felt that these shirts would prompt people to ask for details, thus allowing them a chance to both educate as well as keep their survivor's story alive by telling it. I was very proud of this idea. The shirts had a photo of their Living On survivor on the front, as well as the words "NEVER AGAIN" and "Living On". The back had the name, the birthdate, and the location/situation during the Holocaust. It also included a quote from that person's story. Loved it!!!
