The Holocaust is one of the greatest tragedies of human kind and the immense suffering and humiliation and the sacrifices that millions of innocent Jews had to go through should and never can be forgotten. In order to keep alive, the memory of those who suffered, there are many survivors who have taken it upon themselves to do all they can to retell all that happened to people around the world. There are museums dedicated to the holocaust where photographs are displayed and this helps people from today’s generation to have an idea of what the Jews went through. There are several holocaust foundations set up whose mission it is to preserve the horrendous stories of the holocaust as retold by many survivors. It is also their mission to educate the future generations and make them realise how important it is to stand up for any injustice.

Online Campaigns For Peace And Tolerance

There are several projects and programs that have been started and some of the holocaust remembrance projects issolely focussed on the future generation. It is important to teach the youth of today the importance of tolerance especially since they will have to interact with people from different nations, cultures and religions. The persecution of Jews reached the levels it did because the bullying tactics of some people were not curbed on time. The youth have to realise that bullying is not accepted at any level and that is what many of these projects try to do. There are online campaigns that advocate anti-bullying and are against all kinds of intolerance and they encourage the youth to become a part of these campaigns. Since they are all online, it is possible to bring together people from all over the world who support peace.

Technology Is Used To Bring Families Together

During that horrible time, many families were separated and children were taken away from their parents. Some Jewish organizations are helping to bring together some of the survivors with their immediate descendants. By using modern technology, they are trying to create a database of genetic material. There are also organizations whose main mission is to help in supporting holocaust survivors who are old and need support of any kind. It is possible to support all these groups by assisting them financially or by volunteering in the running of the programs or in any other way help is needed.

Strong Support Systems For Survivors Set Up

The holocaust has destroyed lives and for the survivors it has not been easy to live a normal life. Many of them were children but the horror and fear that they witnessed has been imprinted on their minds and souls and they have been haunted by these memories.Life has been difficult for these survivors but thanks to all the support offered by the many organizations they have been able to survive. By inviting survivors to speak in schools, universities, churches or any places where large groups of people are gathered, the organizers of holocaust remembrance programs ensure that those events are not forgotten and the victims are remembered by the future generations, t
