The Fund's intent is to provide and conduct guided bus tours to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. for selected secondary school students from Erie and Northwestern Pennsylvania.
Programs and Services
The trips are intended to be part of secondary school courses or programs that, among other goals, instruct participants on the significance of the Holocaust in Jewish and world history, and convey the relevance of the struggle of human rights by peoples throughout the world. This fund was established in 2005 by the Jewish Community Council of Erie in conjunction with funds set up in memory of Sidney and Diana Slotznick.
