About The Holocaust Channel
Remember.org is one of the most successful
educational sites on the Internet reaching many people since 1995 from every corner of the planet. The Holocaust Channel is the latest evolution in a long process of online, distance learning.
We are a group of contributors for a 501(c)3 non-profit run by Joseph Korn, dedicated to Holocaust education. We combine a technological team in California, and the prolific photography and insights of Alan Jacobs and Krysia Jacobs, which have shaped much of the most viewed content at Remember.org over the years.
Alan Jacobs' continuing work with Auschwitz Museum led to
a joint project in 2004, completed in 2009, funded by Remember.org and powered by his photography. This helped Auschwitz Museum go online with valuable content, a cooperative learning approach that is central to Remember.org and its many contributors.
Adobe also awarded this site the Social Impact in Media Award, against hundreds of traditional schools. We are honored to be part of the bridge between schools and the Internet, by providing content and a helping hand in when researching the Holocaust.
The goal here is to remember the stories of survival, of liberation, and of hope.
And with the rapid growth of new resources online, we are responding to requests from teachers and students to help organize all this information. We are looking for help from teachers and students, who can volunteer and update on the site, or simply send us their questions, their educational curriculums, so we can weave content around their specific questions.
The result will be a reviewed directory of sites for students and teachers of all ages. Please let us know your favorite sites, and subjects, and we'll see if we can include them.
Because the Holocaust Channel is the evolution of Remember.org, which shares stories of survival and liberation, with the challenges teachers face sending students out on the Internet to find facts about the Holocaust.
While we know from experience that you will rarely find "answers", just more questions when researching the Holocaust, it is out intention that the Holocaust Channel becomes a place to find trusted resources on the subject.
As you can see, Remember.org is about hope. A hope for a better future. A hope to end the hatred and begin growing through knowledge. We are a community of contributors, from Holocaust survivors like Harold Gordon, to children of Holocaust Survivors like Joseph Korn, and Alan Jacobs, whose photos of Auschwitz and many other project teach people every day at Remember.org.
We need your help to help them more. Our goal is to keep Remember.org growing, to provide more oral histories, more photos, and hire several student interns to keep this site thriving.

We have helped teachers who lack materials and funding for teaching the Holocaust. It is their efforts which are so important.
Or as CNET noted when picking this site one of the Best on the Web:
"As time passes, memory can fade. The Cybrary of the Holocaust uses art, discussion groups, photos, poems, and a wealth of facts to preserve powerful memories and to educate scholars and newcomers alike about the Holocaust.... The Cybrary is stunningly effective in its service to memory." (2/26/97)
We need your assistance to keep this going.
Contact Joey Korn by email, jwkorn/at/remember.org, if you would like to learn more about how you can keep the stories alive.
After all, it is not about this Web Site, it is about people. People who want the events to be remembered as they happened. It is our honor to do a small part in keeping the stories alive.
Peace,
Michael Declan Dunn

Remember.org, a Cybrary of the Holocaust
