Yom HaShoah Commemoration on the Wilf Campus for Senior Living

The Oscar & Ella Wilf Campus for Senior Living has scheduled programs on Monday, April 28, to commemorate Yom HaShoah, Holocaust and Heroism Remembrance Day.

Yom HaShoah is observed as Israel's day of commemoration for the approximately six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust as a result of the actions carried out by Nazi Germany and its accessories, and for the Jewish resistance in that period.
