TO EDUCATE & REMEMBER We are a Massachusetts based and registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization working hard to promote tolerance and equality. This site is dedicated to sharing a little known Holocaust story about the city of Sosúa in the Dominican Republic. Following the Evian Conference in 1938 the Dominican Republic was the sole country offering to accept up to 100,000 displaced Jewish refugees to escape Nazi persecution.

WELCOME
