Now's the Time to Register for The March of Remembrance
The Esther Raab Holocaust Museum & Goodwin Education Center is holding 5th Annual March of Remembrance on Sunday, October 8 at the Jewish Federation Annex building, located at 1721 Springdale Road, Cherry Hill. Along the 2-mile march (abbreviated 1-mile route available) participants will learn many of the lessons history has taught us about the consequences of hatred and bigotry, pay tribute to many of our local Survivors, and become educated about the Esther Raab Holocaust Museum & Goodwin Education Center.
Walkers and Non-Walkers are also invited screening of two documentaries from our community. One is 'Better Together: Names Not Numbers', created by Kellman Brown Academy 8th grade students. Through this film, students were able to interview 4 local Holocaust Survivors and learn how to make a wonderful film. The other is from the students at Rosa International Middle School who produced a video project about Holocaust hero Josiah DuBois for the National History Day competition, where they placed 2nd nationally.

‘Mourners’ solve murder/mystery to benefit Center for Impact and Innovation
There was a murder in the house of shiva. Actually, there were several murders. And some 150 people assembled to pay respects to the grieving widow and
machatunim
of Joel Fein witnessed these dramatic (some might say melodramatic) events while noshing on a light dinner and drinks at the Katz JCC Sept. 17.
The Evening of Murder & Mystery, a fundraiser benefiting Jewish Federation of Southern New Jersey’s Center for Impact and Innovation, appropriately kicked off with a homicide. Lieutenant Sgt. Detective John DiCarlo, “acting” on a tip from the FBI, crashed the solemn gathering just in time to shoot a menacing, masked evildoer brandishing a gun.
