About the event
Our annual Yom HaShoah event will be held in the Queens County Courthouse, Criminal Term this year. We will hear from Tova Friedman, one of the youngest Holocaust survivors. Ms. Friedman will recount her history which involves being sent to Auschwitz at the age of 5, where she was kept contained in the Kinderlager or "children's camp." Ms. Friedman would go on to survive starvation and a trip to the gas extermination chamber which was supposed to happen on October 7, a day even more meaningful in light of recent events.
We are looking for sponsors for the event, if anyone is interested, please reach out to Bradley Siegel or email us at contactus@brandeisassociation.org.
