Educate. Commemorate. Never Forget.

Voices of Hope is a 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization created by descendants of Holocaust survivors from across Connecticut. Voices of Hope raises social consciousness by connecting people to the inhumanity of the Holocaust and other genocides through quality educational and community programming in order to ensure future generations never forget. We cannot change the past, we can only hope these stories and life lessons will positively affect the future. Voices of Hope is supported by the Jewish Federation of Greater Hartford.
