A REASON TO REMEMBER...
A Reason To Remember is a project that benefits the Holocaust Awareness Institute.
Alison and Steven began by selling their jewelry at the Young Entrepreneurs Marketplace in 2005, after viewing the documentary "Paper Clips". All of the profit made from the selling of their paper clip jewelry and other items is given to the Holocaust Awareness Institute at the University of Denver's Center for Judaic Studies Tolerance Trunk Fund. To date, the Mosses have already raised over $1800, which is more than enough to purchase one new Tolerence Trunk as part of HAI's educational outreach program.
To place and order please contact Reason2Remember@aol.com or for more information visit www.du.edu/cjs
