MorseLife's Holocaust Learning Experience Expands with $1 Million Donation
MorseLife, renowned for its leadership in senior care, recently received a $1 million donation to further its Holocaust Learning Experience (HLE). This initiative is designed to educate students about history while promoting values such as resilience, civic responsibility, and hope.
The HLE program provides educators with accessible tools to teach students in grades 5-12. Utilizing a dynamic digital platform, the curriculum is designed to engage learners deeply, helping them to face contemporary challenges with courage and understanding. The program's scalability enables swift expansion, already making its way into various school districts across the country.
Keith Myers, President and CEO of MorseLife, highlighted the importance of this gift, stating, “Our vision is focused – to inspire students with the courage to confront fear, the resilience to tackle challenges with dignity, and the guidance to help shape a better, more hopeful future.” With the support from this donor, HLE aims to bring critical historical lessons to more classrooms, addressing current societal issues head-on.
This commitment comes at a critical time when division and hate seem to be on the rise. HLE has demonstrated a measurable impact, with recent statistics indicating that 87% of students feel they can empathize with others, while 85% are more inclined to intervene in bullying situations. Additionally, 84% expressed confidence in speaking up against hate.
Educators across various subjects, including literature and even athletics, have praised the program for its insightful lessons that spark meaningful discussions. One teacher remarked, “We’ve used countless resources over the years, but this one truly feels like a gift. The lessons are ready to use, simple to navigate, and they ignite the conversations that remind me why I chose to be a teacher.”
In response to the increasing demand for such educational resources, MorseLife is organizing exclusive briefings for philanthropists and community leaders. These sessions will showcase how HLE is transforming classrooms and discuss ways to extend its outreach.
MorseLife, based in West Palm Beach, Florida, is not only dedicated to senior care but also to fostering intergenerational learning. With a commitment to educating youth on significant historical events, the HLE program continues to grow, aiming to make a positive impact on society by promoting understanding and unity among future generations.
