Thank you for your commitment to giving me the chance to learn what should never have to be learned.

—James Byrum

I donated my family's documents to the Museum and it has been such a meaningful relationship. The Museum has become a place of rest for the story of my family.

—Karen Hirschfeld Hendley

It is my job not just as an educator, but as a member of humanity, to ensure that future generations learn of the Holocaust so that something this tragic will never happen again.

—Brian Davis

It has inspired me to accept people for who they are and not because of their religion or skin color.

—Ellen Foley

At the Museum I discovered my family surname on Schindler’s list. That visit inspired me to search for any living survivors from our family. I located a few, among them my elderly mother's first cousin.

—Jesse Fox

I want to be able to reach out to the victims and tell them how much I care and that I promise to never let it happen again.

—Sarah Mullins

It meant the world to my mother, a survivor, to see a living monument to her family and a place that would hopefully prevent the same thing from happening again. The Museum also means the world to me.

—Mania Kleinburg Baghdadi

I joined on the spot upon visiting the Museum for the first time.
