PRESERVING THE LESSONS OF THE PAST TO BUILD A FUTURE OF TOLERANCE
People forget how bad hatred is. It can become a habit. I was imprisoned in Auschwitz. For a long time I didn’t want to talk about my experiences, but now I understand that I must. We need to fight hate. This is what I would leave as my legacy: to remember that hate is a terrible thing.
— Suzy Ressler, 90, Holocaust Survivor
REMEMBERING THE HOLOCAUST
Endowment
Campaign
We have reached our capital campaign goal and are grateful for our community’s support. We have recently launched an endowment campaign and to date raised $2.5 million of our $9 million goal. Our endowment will care for the long-term maintenance and educational programs of the Memorial Plaza. Support this transformative, educational public space by making a gift today.
School
Groups
The Memorial Plaza welcomes school groups of all sizes. The Foundation is available to lead student tours and offers a stipend to offset the cost of student transportation. Teachers wishing to incorporate the Memorial Plaza and the IWalk mobile app into their Holocaust education curricula are encouraged to participate in our free trainings.
