Learning in Israel: Travel to Yad Vashem
Donation protected
Hi everyone!
My name is Megan Fairchild and I'm an 8th grade English Language Arts teacher in Topeka, KS. I was recently awarded a spot on the Advanced Learning Seminar at Yad Vashem through Echoes and Reflections. This is an extraordinary learning opportunity for me, and one that I surely will never get again!
For background, I have been studying the Holocaust for most of my life, and have taught it for all 7 years of my career. I am a United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Teacher Fellow, a Fellow with the Olga Lengyel Institute for Holocaust Studies and Human Rights (TOLI), and have participated in numerous professional development conferences, sessions, etc. over the Holocaust. Recently, I have started to hold my own conferences and seminars over teaching the Holocaust.
This Advanced Learning Seminar at Yad Vahsem, the Holocaust history museum in Israel, is the site of learning and scholarship for many scholars, historians, and educators. I will be lucky to be counted among them.
For this trip, we are called to pay for our own flight and will also need our own spending money throughout the two weeks there.
For fundraising, I am selling these adventure stickers! Any donor will receive one of these adventure stickers in the mail as a thank you for their donation. The suggested donation for this sticker is $7.00 per sticker, to help cover production cost for those who donate.
I thank you SO MUCH for considering donating and helping me on this amazing journey and making this opportunity come to life. I truly am still in shock that I will be traveling to Israel in July.
NOTE: If you prefer to Venmo me, you can at Megan-Fairchild-3, and be sure to include your address for your sticker!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
