West Palm Beach, FL - Tower Of Pennies Represents Victims Of The Holocaust

West Palm Beach, FL - A Florida community center is collecting pennies as a way to remember the victims of the Holocaust.

The Harold & Sylvia Kaplan branch of the Jewish Community Center of the Greater Palm Beaches has stacked 1 million pennies in a Lucite tower in its lobby, on the way to collecting 6 million to honor Holocaust victims.
"People always say, '6 million,' but they have no idea how much that really is," Yaron Kapitulnik, said. "We want these pennies here as a constant reminder."

Kapitulnik hopes to completes the penny project in the coming year. The $60,000 collected would be donated to Holocaust remembrance projects.
