“As International President, I am delighted to be associated with the ’70 Days for 70 Years’ initiative, not only because of the ongoing importance of Holocaust remembrance, but because behind it lies a profound set of Jewish ideas…remembering for life; learning as a bond between the living and the dead and the act of rededication.”
