Teaching Tolerance & Respect

Your contributions will enable the Peoria Holocaust Memorial to teach the lessons of tolerance and respect for many years to come. The response to this memorial has been overwhelming as it offers a place to learn, to share, to reflect, to remember. The thirst for knowledge, tolerance and respect grows, and is the foundation of making sure a tragedy like the Holocaust never happens again.


We need additional funds to provide educational materials, updates of visual and written displays, and ongoing maintenance of the exhibit. Your generous, tax-deductible 501(c)(3) donation will help this memorial become an important means of teaching compassion for all human life. It will make a difference!


To personalize the experience of visiting the site, the display also includes photos and text telling the stories of Peoria area Holocaust survivors, families of survivors, liberators and others who have information to share. Additional photos and stories are being sought for this part of the memorial. For more information, please contact the:
