Windsor Jewish Federation: Holocaust Memorial 2025

Holocaust Memorial Day (or Yom HaShoah) is a solemn occasion for reflection, remembrance, and honouring the memory of the six million Jews who perished during the Holocaust. It serves as a vital reminder of the horrors of genocide and the importance of preserving the lessons of history to ensure that such atrocities never happen again. Our event aims to provide a platform for individuals from diverse backgrounds to come together in solidarity and unity to pay tribute to the victims and survivors of the Holocaust. Through meaningful discussions, testimonials, and memorial activities, we seek to honour the resilience of those who endured unimaginable suffering and to educate future generations about the profound consequences of hatred and intolerance. This year our keynote speaker will be Mrs. Reva Monczak, a Holocaust survivor who has lived here in Windsor for decades. Details of the event are as follows: Date: Sunday, April 27th Time: 7:00pm Venue: Windsor Jewish Community Centre (1641 Ouellette Ave)
