Today, we join communities around the world in honoring the courage, resilience, and enduring legacy of Holocaust survivors.

As part of this meaningful day, survivors in our care will gather next week for “The Music That Was Saved,” a special musical program celebrating music created by Holocaust survivors and their descendants while honoring the lasting impact of their stories across generations.

This gathering is made possible through the support of the Seed the Dream Foundation and KAVOD SHEF, in partnership with the Jewish Federation of Greater Dallas.

We are grateful for the opportunity to honor the survivors in our community and celebrate the lives they rebuilt after unimaginable loss.
