Matt Majka’s first lesson in the Holocaust wasn’t a textbook—it was seeing the shoes at the @HolocaustMuseum. Now a HS teacher, he brings that experience to his classroom as a responsibility, not just a unit. 👇 How did you first learn about the Holocaust? #HolocaustEducation

Why the shoes? 👟 The JFTL logo honors Mark Schonwetter’s survival. This May, walk, run, or ride 15 miles—the distance Mark walked in one night to escape the Nazis—to support Holocaust Education. Register: tinyurl.com/4tv846jy #JFTL #MSHEF #HolocaustEducation

Zofia Dziedzic Trojan was just a child when she helped her parents hide #MarkSchonwetter & family from the Nazis—risking everything to keep them safe. This #WomensHistoryMonth, we honor Zofia’s quiet courage and the power of choosing compassion over fear. #NeverForget #Holocaust

An #MSHEF grant built a space for remembrance. 💜 At Arthur L. Johnson High School, a new Holocaust & Genocide Resource Center now lives inside the media center — a permanent place where students can learn, reflect, and confront history. Read the story: tinyurl.com/283mm5un

This #WomenHistoryMonth, we honor #MSHEF Co-Founders Isabella Fiske & Ann Arnold, who turned their father’s story into a national foundation for #HolocaustEducation. Over 253k+ students in 42 states have learned the importance of confronting hatred with kindness & respect.

220+ Dexter HS students visited the Zekelman Holocaust Center through an MSHEF Grant, many for the first time. Their reflections showed the lasting impact of Holocaust education. This is why it matters. #HolocaustEducation #MSHEF
