Stories of the Past, Enlightening the next generation.

Names, Not Numbers ©, an interactive, multi-media Holocaust oral history film documentary project created by educator Tova Rosenberg, transforms traditional history lessons into an inter-generational interactive program that preserves Holocaust survivors’ stories through the production of a student produced documentary film. Our Yeshiva is grateful to be counted among schools nationwide to participate in this unique film project. Please join us as we come together to honor these survivors and preserve the legacy of our Jewish people.  

Fasman Yeshiva High School’s senior class has enriched their education on the Holocaust and World War 1 & 2 events by traveling and meeting with holocaust survivors to hear their stories on survival.

After much hard work and dedication, these students have provided an outlet for our elder generation to shed light on their experiences during the Holocaust and on August 2nd, we will be hosting a Student Produced Documentary on the stories of 7 individuals who survived one of the worst tragedies one could ever imagine.
