Dear Friends,
Thank you so much for those who registered to join us for this year’s Family Friendly Yom HaShoah walk and commemoration. It truly means a lot to have a community that shows up to remember, reflect, and honor together.
After thoughtful conversations with our Boston 3G board, community members, a security team, and the Holocaust Museum Boston, we’ve made the difficult decision to pull out of this year’s event. Given the current climate and concerns around safety, we don’t feel we can provide the level of care and security our community deserves.
While Boston 3G will not be participating in the annual Yom HaShoah Walk and Commemoration in Boston, we know how meaningful this day is, and we still want to offer ways for you to participate in remembering and honoring the Holocaust in a way that's comfortable for you.
IAC and Tzofim will continue to hold a reimagined event separately. Please feel free to join them on Sunday if you choose - you must re-register at https://iac360.org/iac-events/boswalk/ Questions? ssadeattia@israeliamerican.org

6 Million Steps
In remembrance of the Holocaust, we invite you to take part in an international effort to complete 6 million steps in each community. We will walk together from the MA State House, located at 24 Beacon St, Boston, to The New England Holocaust Memorial. Count your steps and show respect to the six million victims of the Holocaust.
4Gs Rocks of Remembrance
Passing on the legacy and stories of the Holocaust to the next generation (4Gs) is a huge priority of Boston 3G. We will be providing rocks for all kids to paint during the ceremony at the NEHM and then participate in a processional placing their stone as a rock of remembrance on the headstone of the Memorial.
Unity Kaddish
We will be joined by JCRC and CJP and the Greater Boston community to say Kaddish. Together, we will stand in unity, embracing our shared history and ensuring that future generations continue to remember and reflect, while honoring those we lost.
