Holocaust Memorial Foundation of Illinois

The mission of Illinois Holocaust Museum & education center is expressed in its founding principle: remember the past, transform the future. Dedicated to preserving the legacy of the Holocaust, the museum honors the memories of those who were lost and those who survived by teaching universal lessons that combat hatred, prejudice, and indifference. The museum fulfills its mission through the exhibition, preservation, and interpretation of its collections; and through education programs and initiatives that foster the promotion of human rights and the elimination of genocide.
