Holocaust Remembrance Day, orYom HaShoah, is observed on the 27th of Nissan as a day of commemoration for the six million Jews who diedas a result of the actions carried out bythe Nazis.

Every year communities around the world uphold the memory of victims of the Holocaust through Unto Every Person There Is a Name, a public recitation of Holocaust victims’ names, ages and birthplaces.
