Voices of Truth to honor Bloch September 25th

Jericho, NY Five years ago, Jack Britvan, SIOR, president of Commercial Realty Services of Long Island, set out to educate people about Hate on College Campuses (BDS) and the lack of Holocaust and other genocide education in the public schools. Within a year of creating Voices for Truth and Humanity, a 501c3, he was named one of four people on a NYS task force to advise on the lack of WW2/Holocaust Education in NYS public schools. During this time, the Voices five-member board had been invited to and attended two U.N. conferences on anti-semitism and one of their board members was selected as a congressional liaison to Christians United for Israel (CUFI) which has 6.5 million members. 

On September 25th, they will be honoring Martin Bloch, a Bielsky Partisans who hid in the forest for four years and fought Nazi’s at seven years old – yes with a gun wandering thru the woods! The event will be held at Crest Hollow Country Club, 8325 Jericho Tpke. at 5:30 p.m. Visit www.voices4th.org for more information.
