In partnership with March of the Living International, we ran a social media campaign to encourage people to write messages on plaques that were displayed on a mini site. Internationally we had 18,000 plaques and the campaign was exposed to 4 million people. The plaques were then projected onto the gates of Birkenau the night of Yom HaShoah. See video HERE.
