Please bring your canceled stamps from home and put them in the jar in the TBD lobby. You may also mail them in if you prefer.
For six years, the Foxborough Charter School has worked toward the goal of collecting 11 million stamps to memorialize the 11 million murdered by the Nazis before and during WWII – 6 million Jews and 5 million other victims perished during the Holocaust.
Eleven million is a huge number. One and a half million were children. Six million were European Jews. An additional five million people were killed for being “different” or resisting the seemingly endless acts of disrespect, prejudice, discrimination, and cruelty by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime during World War II. But 11 million is an unfathomable number. Students at Foxborough Regional Charter School are working towards gaining an understanding of the significance of that many people having had their lives taken. They are collecting and counting one stamp, one life, at a time.
