The Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center and the Westchester Jewish Council are proud to present the Annual Westchester Countywide Yom Hashoah Holocaust Commemoration this Thursday, April 24th from 12noon-1pm at the Garden of Remembrance in White Plains, 148 Martine Avenue. The commemoration will again begin with a procession of Westchester’s rescued Holocaust Torahs.

It's important that we never forget the horrors that took place during the Holocaust. Greenburgh residents were impacted by the horrors of the Holcaust that took the lives of 6 million Jews
