Yom HaShoah begins at sundown Wednesday April 23, 2025 / 27 Nisan 5785

As time marches forward, it is our task to remember and teach about the Shoah.

Light a Candle – Preserve a Memory

Each year, the FJMC Shoah Yellow Candle™ Program distributes tens of thousands Yellow Candles™ to Men’s Clubs, Brotherhoods and houses of worship to help remember the Holocaust. Men’s Clubs and other organizations around the world order Yellow Candles™ from the FJMC and distribute them to their membership with a short explanation of the program. On the night of Yom HaShoah, the candles are lit in homes across the globe to shine a light of memory, a light of education, and a light that we will never forget. By participating in this program, you are helping to keep the memory of the Shoah alive and to remember what could happen if we don’t stand up for ourselves. We’d like to give all our clubs in the Region a friendly reminder to place your order for your Yellow Candles™ at https://yellowcandle.fjmc.org/.

Yom HaShoah begins at sundown Wednesday April 23, 2025 / 27 Nisan 5785. We encourage all Men’s clubs and Brotherhoods to start planning your programs now and take the first step of ordering/replenishing your supply of Yellow Candles™ and mailers. I look forward to working with our clubs and assisting in any way possible. Please do not hesitate to reach out. Thank you for all the work you are doing to implement this important program,
