Ensure Survivors’ Voices Are Heard
Posted on 02/14/2025 @ 05:00 AM
For decades, CAJE’s Leo Martin March of the Living (often referred to as "the Miami March") has shaped the next generation of Jewish leaders by strengthening their identity, educating about the Holocaust, and equipping them to confront antisemitism and advocate for Israel.
At the heart of this journey is the presence of Holocaust Survivors, whose testimonies turn history into lived memory.
One March participant reflected:
“Hearing a Survivor’s story in Auschwitz made history real in a way I never imagined it could. It was not just a place from my textbook— it was where they stood, where their families stood, and where our people survived.”
Your Support Matters
From April 21–30, two Holocaust Survivors will accompany Miami teens on this iconic journey, but ensuring their participation requires funding for travel, accommodations, and a Survivor Support Concierge to ensure their well-being.
We know that firsthand Survivor testimony makes a lasting impact on our teens.
But we need your support too enable them to come with the teens to Poland by providing them with upgraded flights, single rooms, and personalized care so they travel in dignity.
The total cost for 2 Survivors to travel with support is $36,000.
Thus far, CAJE has raised $18,000 and we need to raise another $18,000.
Help make this possible by attending An Evening of Legacy, a special fundraising event supporting Survivor participation in the 2025 Miami March of the Living.
Date/Time: Sunday, March 16, 2025 | 6 PM
Location: Private Home in Aventura
(location will be shared after registration)
Cost: $54 per person
The evening will feature:
- Holocaust Survivor & Photographer Laszlo Selly, sharing his powerful images and information about community Survivors.

- A Moving Tribute honoring Survivors and their legacy.

This is more than just a fundraiser— it is a chance to preserve memory and shape Jewish education for generations to come.
