SECOND GENERATION
As a group, the second generation is vital to the HEC. It is their commitment to continuing the tradition of relating first person recollections that will insure that the lessons of the Holocaust are not forgotten. This committee also promotes a fellowship between members of the 2nd generation and provides activities that are of interest to the group. Their financial support for the programs of the HEC honors the memories of their relatives and allows the HEC to continue its programming.

MEMBERSHIP
Without members, we are lost. Our membership committee works to find people interested in supporting and participating in our organization. We welcome all faiths and nationalities.

FUNDRAISING
Raising funds to perpetuate the work we do is central to our existence. It is our responsibility to always remember and to educate the public about the dangers of hatred and bigotry. And these mandates require funding. Please help us acquire the resources we need to continue our critical work in making the world a safer place for our children and grandchildren.

PROGRAMMING
Members of the Programming Committee take a hands on role in planning and executing community programs for the HEC. These programs range from getting popular authors to speak about their works to panel discussions on intolerance and prejudice in today’s society. These programs help educate everyone from high school students to adults, both Jewish and non-Jewish. Joining this committee is truly a mitzvah (blessing) for all concerned.

GOODWIN HOLOCAUST MUSEUM
The Museum Committee is responsible for the maintenance and promotion of the Holocaust Museum. This involves caring for the physical plant, changing and improving the displays whenever possible and screening artifacts for display. We also promote and advertise the Museum to increase traffic and membership.

YOM HASHOAH COMMITTEE
This committee plans and executes the annual Yom Hashoah commemoration for Cherry Hill and the surrounding communities. The event remembers Holocaust victims and honors the survivors with a guest speaker who is also a survivor of the Holocaust. There is a special recognition of survivors living in our community. Hundreds of persons throughout the area attend as our commemoration is recognized as one of the most effective and moving presentations of the HEC.
