BBYO’s National Teen Delegation to the March of the Living is a two-week, annual rite of passages where Jewish teens converge in Poland and Israel for an emotional journey impacting their sense of history, perspective, and identity. Prior affiliation with BBYO is not necessary to participate. This program occurs each spring and coincides with the commemoration of Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Memorial Day, where you will march in unity from Auschwitz to Birkenau, and then the celebration of Yom HaAtzmaut, Israel Independence Day, where you’ll dance in the streets of Jerusalem. Along the way, travels are uniquely enriched by the presence of Survivors who share their own personal testimony, perseverance, and wisdom.
