Summary

Marion P. Pritchard writes to Elie Wiesel, requesting a brief message from him for the people of Vermont. Pritchard explains that she was introduced to Wiesel at the "Faith in Humankind" Conference and has since dedicated herself to teaching and remembering the Holocaust. She details plans for an upcoming statewide, all-day workshop for teachers in April and an official commemoration ceremony at the State House on April 29th, where the Governor of Vermont will participate, and Pritchard herself is scheduled to speak. She asks Wiesel if he would be willing to provide a one or two-sentence message to be read as an introduction to her talk. Pritchard also mentions that they are not funded and lack an office, requesting that any message be mailed to her residential address.
