2022 Projects
We have six projects set for the summer of 2022. Here's a look at each one:
June 7-12 Częstochowa Jewish Cemetery
Volunteers from the Matzevah Foundation will join Alon Goldman of the World Society of Częstochowa Jews, Fundacja Chrześcijańska “Adullam,” local high school and elementary school students and other volunteers from Częstochowa to clean and clear the Jewish cemetery. Plans include touring the former Jewish areas of the city and inviting members of the community of Częstochowa to join in the cleanup efforts on June 12.
June 13-19 Częstochowa and Krzepice Jewish Cemeteries
The Matzevah Foundation will once more cooperate with Dr. Caroline Sturdy-Colls, Staffordshire University (UK) and their students in a field course for learning and applying non-invasive archeological principles and techniques in the Jewish cemeteries of Częstochowa and Krzepice.
June 26-29 Markuszów Jewish Cemetery
In collaboration with the Foundation for the Preservation of Jewish Heritage in Poland (FODZ), Dan Oren and his organization Friends of Jewish Heritage in Poland, TMF will return to Markuszów for a cemetery cleanup in preparation for a wall dedication ceremony.
June 30-July 1 Garwolin Jewish Cemetery
TMF will join the Rabbinical Commission for Matters of Jewish Cemeteries in Poland and local volunteers to clear and clean the Jewish cemetery in Garwolin.
July 6-15 Przysucha Jewish Cemetery
JewishGen is conducting an immersive program in coordination with TMF and Friends of Jewish Heritage in Poland. Fellowship participants will tour Jewish heritage sites in Warsaw, Lublin, Tarnow, and Krakow and will end their fellowship by joining their Polish peers led by Dr. Radosław Ptaszyński, professor of history at the University of Szczecin to help clean the Jewish cemetery in Przysucha as part of their study in Poland. We are thrilled to be a part of this second annual program and look forward to working with the JewishGen Future Scholars once more.
July 29-August 5 Oświęcim Jewish Cemetery
We are happy to return to Oświęcim and join our local friends and partners in clearing the cemetery of overgrowth. They have been coordinating yearly cleanings of the cemetery during COVID and we’re excited to return and support their continuing efforts.
Note: This year, due to the nature of several of our projects, volunteers will be invited by invitation only for some projects. Thank you for your understanding.
