Generations came together Sunday at the Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County to listen and learn from Holocaust survivors.

The reception lunch hosted about 50 survivors and their families. They shared their stories of the Holocaust to younger generations eager to learn about their history.

“These people here have experienced the hate that's been going on throughout all of human history,” said
March for Miriam member Kyle Brenner.

“I think it gives them something they've never heard of. Lots of people say it never existed,” said
Holocaust survivor, Lilly Glass. 

Many members of the event will attend the "March of the Living," an event where people from around the world gather in Poland and Israel.
