#17- Keeping Holocaust Education Alive with Holocaust Survior Allan Silverberg

On This episode of the podcast we are joined by Allan Silverberg and my student Kassim Karamoko. Allan is the Committee Chairman for the Holocaust Remembrance Education Program. This program recently visited our school, One Bright Ray Community High School to speak to us about the events of the Holocaust and the hate that it was spawned from. After Allan shared with us what he experienced, we wanted to help him in anyway that we could. So we decided to help him spread the word about his upcoming event the Ride for The Living 2019  where he will be riding a bicycle from Auschwitz to Krakow, Poland. That is a 60 mile bicycle ride ! which is equivalent from riding from Philadelphia to Atlantic City. Allan is raising money for the Jewish Community Center of Krakow Poland. He needs help to raise 3,000 dollars before his race on June 28th 2019.
