Mission: 3GNY is an educational non-profit organization founded by grandchildren of Holocaust survivors. As a living link, we preserve the legacies and the lessons of the Holocaust. Our mission is to educate diverse communities about the perils of intolerance and to provide a supportive forum for the descendants of survivors. Our generation is the last living link to survivors. It is primarily through us that future generations will hear the actual stories of our grandparents’ survival. We must ensure that others see the human face of the Holocaust, as well as understand its details, its place in history and how it is viewed and discussed today.
Services: Our WEDU ("We Educate") program trains and sends 3G volunteers to schools and community groups to compellingly share their families' Holocaust experiences with others. 3GNY also creates forums for descendants to meet, learn, connect, and share ideas, through educational and social programming in NYC and virtually.

By sharing Anne's legacy with visitors, students and teachers, USC’s Anne Frank Center seeks to inspire our commitment to never be bystanders but instead to stand up together against antisemitism, bigotry and inequality wherever it may exist today. The University of South Carolina is the Official U.S. Partner of the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, and the only partner site in North America.

Mission or Purpose: The Arizona Jewish Historical Society (AZJHS) is a Phoenix Point of Pride, and its mission preserves and celebrates the rich heritage of Arizona’s Jewish communities, educates the public about the Jewish historical experience including the Holocaust, and promotes awareness of our state’s diverse history through arts, culture, and educational programming. The home of Phoenix’s first synagogue, the Cutler-Plotkin Jewish Heritage Center has been restored as a cultural/educational resource for all Arizonans. Built in 1921, the historic temple served as a sanctuary, religious school, and gathering center for local Jewish community. It was also used as a church by Chinese and later, Spanish speaking Baptist congregations. Situated in the arts district in downtown Phoenix, the AZJHS, CPJHC was established in 1981 and sits adjacent to the Burton Barr Library. In 2008 the AZJHS was designated a Phoenix Point of Pride Historical Landmark by the Phoenix City Council. The Hilton Family Holocaust Education Center will be built on our site and is scheduled to open in 2027.
Services: The AZJHShelps to make an emotional connection to the Holocaust through many of our programs, including book discussions, film series, concerts, genealogy club, gallery exhibitions, as well as our educational seminars.
