Join us to #ShineTheLight in remembrance of Kristallnacht.
On November 9–10, 1938, Nazi-orchestrated attacks devastated Jewish communities across Germany and its annexed territories. Synagogues were burned, Jewish homes and businesses were destroyed, Jews were murdered, and approximately 30,000 Jewish men were arrested and sent to concentration camps.
As we mark the 88th anniversary, the Jewish Federation of Dutchess County invites our Hudson Valley neighbors to participate in #ShineTheLight, an initiative of ASHER—the American Society for Holocaust Education & Remembrance—and The Jewish Agency for Israel.
💡 Monday evening, November 9, turn on a light in your window.
💬 Share a photo and why you remember—a person, a story, or a lesson you want to carry forward.
🤝 Invite someone to participate and use #ShineTheLight.
You do not need a personal family connection to the Holocaust to take part. Remembrance is a responsibility we can all share.

Together, let us make remembrance visible across the Hudson Valley.
