Holocaust Learning Experience Announces 2024-2025 NEXT GENERATIONS Showcase of Events Hosted by MorseLife NEXT GENERATIONS

The Holocaust Learning Experience (HLE), a nonprofit established by MorseLife to educate and inspire future generations to end antisemitism and combat hate, bigotry and prejudice, is excited to announce the 2024-2025 NEXT GENERATIONS Showcase of Events. Hosted by MorseLife NEXT GENERATIONS, this series will raise awareness, educate and unite the community at various venues across Palm Beach County.

“The annual event showcase provides a wonderful chance to come together and foster a community dedicated to Holocaust awareness and fighting the current rise in antisemitism,” said Leigh Routman, Executive Director of the Holocaust Learning Experience. “This year, the NEXT GENERATIONS Showcase of Events is especially crucial as antisemitism and violence against Jews are increasing worldwide. Our events give people purpose and understanding, who might otherwise feel discouraged and worried about the future.”
