Korczyna, Poland

The goals of the trip were to renew an awareness of the Jewish history of Korczyna and renovate the Jewish cemetery there. We engaged with the local community throughout our journey. We met with local officials from the Poland's culture ministry and local government, but perhaps the most fulfilling and important connections we made were with people almost our own age. We partnered with students from Korczyna's main public school, visiting them in their environment, while they visited us in the cemetery.
