Fostering community values while conservating history: CSB Group sponsors Holocaust Memorial Exhibition

Shoah: How was it Humanly Possible?

CSB Group are proud to be one of the sponsors of the Holocaust Memorial exhibition arranged by the Tayar Foundation for Jewish Heritage in Malta. It commences in January 2023 to commemorate the Worldwide Holocaust Memorial day on 26 January. The exhibition will open at the German Malta Circle in Valletta from the 27th January to the 12th of March, at MCAST Paola from the 13th March to the 23rd April (excluding weekends and Easter), and at the University of Malta Msida Campus library from the 4^th May to the 4^th June.

The exhibition deals with major historical aspects of the Holocaust, beginning with Jewish life in pre-Holocaust Europe and ending with the liberation of the Nazi concentration and extermination camps across the continent and the remarkable return to life of the survivors.

The Holocaust was an unprecedented genocide, total and systematic, perpetrated in Europe from 1933 to 1945, by Nazi Germany and its collaborators, with the aim of annihilating the Jewish people from the face of the Earth.

The panels feature explanatory texts, with quotes from Jewish victims and survivors, photographs, art documents, as well as videos of survivor stories.

Committed to its Corporate Social Responsibility, CSB Group always strives to give back to the community by supporting noble causes. CSB Group CEO, Michael J. Zammit, and CSB Group Director, Roger A. Strickland Jr. met with Julius Nehorai, the Chairperson of Tayar Foundation, to present a donation on behalf of the Group. By co-sponsoring this exhibition, the Group continues to support organisations such as the Tayar Foundation for Jewish Heritage in Malta, in spreading awareness and knowledge about fostering community values and conservating history and culture. CSB Group CEO, Michael J. Zammit remarked that “it is of utmost importance that businesses in Malta do their part in helping the community at large. This exhibition provides an opportunity for people to come together and expand their knowledge of the Holocaust and its devastating aftermath whilst honouring the victims and survivors.” CSB Group Director, Roger A. Strickland Jr., noted that “the values which this exhibition promotes – those of equal rights, mutual respect, and togetherness – mirror the core values of the Group and it, therefore, gives us great pleasure to support organisations which cherish such important notions”.
