                                                                                                                                      The dinner will be free for all ATJC Holocaust survivor members, courtesy of Carole & William Landa.  However, to help defray the additional costs, and for the establishment of the ATJC Holocaust Endowment, for Jewish education thus assuring Jewish continuity, I am asking you to consider being a sponsor of this major event, and send your donation payable to ATJC Holocaust Endowment Fund.    Special sponsor recognition will be listed in the book, as well as on a plaque in the Memorial Gallery.  Sponsorship categories are:
