Yad VaShem Square

Yad VaShem Square is located at the entrance to the Holocaust Memorial on the west side of Jerusalem.

The monument at the entrance reads: "The YadYashem Square Generously Endowed by the Wilf Families, USA".  This family is known for its philanthropy, especially for Jewish causes.

I am interested in this because the last two names on the inscription are those of Zygmunt (Zigi) and Mark Wilf, owners of the Minnesota Vikings—my favorite football team.  \

Zigi and Mark are the sons of Joseph and Elizabeth Wilf, who were both Holocaust Survivors from Nazi-occupied Poland.
