The organization empowers future generations to combat antisemitism and hate and promotes Jewish pride, encouraging young Jews to stand up and make a difference. Approximately 30,000 Jews fought back as armed-resistance fighters during the Holocaust, saving thousands of lives. Capturing the vital legacies of the Jewish partisans and bringing this little-known chapter of history to the world in engaging and innovative ways are central to the organization’s mission.

Provides free groundbreaking curriculum, including 12 short films narrated by Liev Schreiber, Ed Asner and Larry King; interactive lesson plans; and cutting-edge online professional development. It is the largest organization in the world dedicated to teaching the Jewish partisan legacy. It brings tales of heroism to thousands of educators in day schools, synagogues and summer camps, encouraging students to embrace Jewish values, demonstrate leadership in their own lives and make a positive difference in the world. Since 2000, the foundation has shared the history of heroic Jewish resistance with millions of teens worldwide.
