Über uns
Der Marsch des Lebens ist eine Initiative von Jobst und Charlotte Bittner und den evangelisch-freikirchlichen TOS Diensten aus Tübingen in Deutschland. Gemeinsam mit Nachkommen deutscher Wehrmachts-, Polizei- und SS-Angehöriger veranstalten sie Gedenk- und Versöhnungsmärsche an Orten des Holocaust. Seit dem Beginn der Bewegung im Jahr 2007 haben bisher Märsche in 20 Nationen und über 400 Städten und Ortschaften stattgefunden in Zusammenarbeit mit Christen der unterschiedlichsten Kirchen und Denominationen sowie vieler jüdischer Gemeinschaften. In den Jahren 2011 und 2015 wurde der Marsch des Lebens von der israelischen Knesset für sein besonderes Engagement für Holocaustüberlebende ausgezeichnet.
2017 verlieh die Jüdische Gemeinde zu Halle (Saale) dem Verein Marsch des Lebens e.V. den Emil-L.-Fackenheim-Preis für Toleranz und Verständigung.

A touch of the Black Forest - News in September 2024
Dear donor,
In August, we received 105 euros for our work with Holocaust survivors. That is 8.3% of the monthly donation amount of 1260 euros. Two new permanent donors have joined us and are now supporting the project on a monthly basis. Thank you very much for that!
The provisional target of 500 euros/month, which will be achieved by permanent donors, is getting closer! I reported on this goal here a month ago. Join us and become a permanent donor!

A touch of the Black Forest at the March of Life House
On August 20, 9 Holocaust survivors from Or Akiva visited the March of Life House. They were welcomed by 4 volunteers from the Black Forest/Germany.
For the volunteers from the Black Forest, it was a matter close to their hearts to practically prepare and carry out this meeting. Many tears flowed as we listened to each other:
The Holocaust survivors spoke about how members of their families were killed by German soldiers during the Second World War, sometimes in mass shootings. The German volunteers were able to share about the guilt of their ancestors against the Jews and express how sorry they were for it. Reconciliation took place.
Afterwards we had a joyful time with food, dancing and singing. The hit for the Holocaust survivors was a Black Forest cake😊
Thank you for making meetings like this possible!
