To date there are only 60 holocaust survivors living in Rochester, each with a unique story to tell. The 100 Year Project partners young community members with local holocaust survivors so they can learn, understand and perpetuate the survivor's story for 100 years. By taking an oath and adopting the Holocaust survivor's story as their own, the “students” will ensure that these important stories are passed down from generation to generation. The 100 Year Project will facilitate the relationship between survivor and student, guide them through the process of transferring knowledge and help develop long-term strategies for recounting and remembering.
