Description

The Daffodil Project aspires to build a worldwide Living Holocaust Memorial by planting 1.5 million Daffodils in memory of the children who perished in the Holocaust and in support for children suffering in humanitarian crises in the world today.

During the Holocaust, one and a half million children were senselessly murdered in Nazi-occupied Europe. No-one knows what kind of lives these children would have gone on to lead. Their potential for growth and fulfillment was cut short. We aspire to build a Living Holocaust Memorial by planting 1.5 million daffodils around the world in memory of the children and in support for children who continue to suffer in the face of genocide and humanitarian crises in the world today.

JMCC has a garden full of daffodils.  It’s time to celebrate these resilient bursts of color that come each year and learn more about the Daffodil Project.

Light Refreshments served.
