Mission or Function: The mission of the North Carolina Holocaust Foundation is to educate the community and public school teachers and students about the facts and the lessons learned from the Holocaust. The Holocaust Foundation teaches the values of diversity, democracy, pluralism, and inclusion to the community and to public school administrators, teachers, and students. The Holocaust Foundation educates against antisemitism, pro-Nazi sentiment, racism, and bigotry in North Carolina communities and public schools. The North Carolina Holocaust Foundation is dedicated to confront misconceptions and ignorance about the Holocaust, Jews, and Judaism. The vision of the North Carolina Holocaust Foundation is to ensure the permanence of Holocaust memory, understanding, and relevance. At the North Carolina Holocaust Foundation, we remember the dangers of unchecked hatred, and we educate students and adults alike on the lessons that the Holocaust teaches us. Through our educational resources, curriculum, programs, exhibits, plays, speakers, webinars, and workshops, we inspire future generations to help build a world anchored in justice and responsibility.
