Jewish Federation Hosts Philadelphia’s
Annual Memorial Ceremony for
Holocaust Remembrance Day

PHILADELPHIA WAS ONE of the first
American cities to conduct a public ceremony
and to erect a monument in memory of the 6
million Jews who perished in the Shoah. And
on Sunday, April 15th, more than 500 people
from across the Philadelphia region gathered
to remember and to say in one collective voice:
“Never Forget. Never Again.” Dozens of local
youth from both the Jewish Committee on
Scouting and local area high schools joined
the crowd to honor the many local Holocaust
survivors and to hear stories from the tragedy.

Brianna Ratson, a great-granddaughter of
survivors, represented Girl Scout Troop 71662.

A large turnout attended the ceremony at Congregation Rodeph Shalom.

Sarita Gocial, chair of the Memorial Committee
for the Six Million Jewish Martyrs, speaks about
Jewish rescuers.
