The Florida Holocaust Museum Fundraising Effort supported by Crofton Cares turned out to be a great success.  After Crofton Cares pledged to donate $18,000 in matching gifts, the museum reported fundraising totals of nearly $27,000.  In response, Crofton Cares raised its matching gifts pledge from $18,000 to $25,000, helping the Florida Holocaust Museum raise more than $50,000 to provide free trunks filled with books and classroom resources teachers can use to fulfill a Holocaust education mandate in Florida.  Said one donor whose contribution was matched, “As a fifth grade teacher at Plumb Elementary School I use the teaching trunks every year.  The trunk…made the Holocaust teaching unit highly anticipated and much appreciated.”
