Join us as a Sarah L. Weiss Beacon of Humanity — and be part of the upstander ripple effect. Your support for our mission inspires cascading acts of bravery, hope and love today.
History reminds us of the devastating consequences of hatred and indifference, and the profound impact of individual choices. The stories of Holocaust survivors who rebuilt their lives here in Cincinnati illuminate those lessons and challenge us to consider our own responsibility.
What will future generations say about the choices we make today?
At the Nancy & David Wolf Holocaust & Humanity Center, we bring history’s lessons to light and inspire people to put them into action.
Following a landmark year that welcomed nearly 150,000 people to the internationally renowned exhibition Auschwitz. Not long ago. Not far away., we are building on that momentum with new experiences that connect history to the choices we face today. New interactive experiences in our Holocaust Gallery will deepen understanding of the past, while the reimagined Anita & Hank Schneider Family Humanity Gallery, featuring the Gloria & Alvin Lipson Family Upstander Experience, will help visitors discover the character strengths within themselves to stand up against hatred, confront injustice, and help shape a more humane future.
A student learns to recognize injustice. A teacher brings difficult history into the classroom. A visitor discovers the courage to speak up. Each carries the lessons of history forward, inspiring choices that bring more courage, compassion, and humanity into the world. The lessons of history can light the way. But it takes people choosing to act to move humanity forward.
The lessons of history don’t end at our doors. They live on through the choices people make. Your gift to the Beacons of Humanity Annual Giving Campaign helps preserve the stories of Holocaust survivors, illuminate the lessons of history, and inspire people to recognize their own capacity to stand up.
Do not be bystanders, but act with care, We should not wait for someone else to stand up.
Your support drives our critical mission forward. Get involved today.
