Now in its 62nd year, the Philadelphia Holocaust Memorial Ceremony reflects a longstanding community commitment to remembrance, education and responsibility – l’dor v’dor, from generation to generation – and to ensuring that lessons of the Holocaust are not forgotten.
The ceremony will include candle lighting, music and prayers.
