On October 12th, 2018, student volunteers from Professional Development Center in Wysokie Mazowieckie conducted the clean-up works at the local Jewish cemetery, supervised by Karol Głębocki, a Leader of Dialogue. They cleared the area of vegetation and carried out a thorough cleaning of the grounds. During the work, three previously undocumented matzevot were found!
Karol Głębocki is a history and social studies teacher. He was recognized for his activism in preserving the Jewish heritage by both the Israeli Embassy to Poland and the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw. Besides coordinating the clean-up works at the cemetery since 2006 he regularly assists descendants of Jews from his area in their quests to learn more about their and their family’s roots.
