My ancestors were from several locations in historical Poland.  We visited Warsaw, Krakow and our ancestral villages in 2019.  The experience was remarkably moving and the support we found from the local communities made the experience all the richer.  Thank you for continuing to do the important work that you do.

The Holocaust Reunion Project gave my survivor mother access to the 50% of her family history none of us knew about. I want to help others find what they have lost!

I gave to SJC so they can continue to provide a home for Puget Sound's secular Jewish community.

in memory of Al & Paula Knobler survivors of the Shoah in Poland.

The Holocaust Reunion Project is amazing!!  They completed my family tree beyond timelines I never expected.  They also helped reunite my father’s family with his brother’s family!thank you so much!

Empowering Holocaust Survivors and their children to find family and reclaim their histories  through the power of DNA testing.

The mission of the Holocaust Reunion Project is to harness the power of commercial DNA testing, combined with expert genealogical research, both to reunite Holocaust survivors and their children with living relatives and to illuminate the family history that has been lost to genocide. DNA can unlock mysteries and make crucial connections, often linking survivors to living relatives they did not know they had. DNA matches can also open the door to help survivors reconstruct their shattered trees and reclaim their lost history, often reconnecting lines of communication severed by the Holocaust.

We distribute free DNA kits to Holocaust survivors and their children; provide free consultation services to survivors and their children; and offer educational opportunities to shed light on the possibilities of genetic genealogy for the survivor community.

Your donation will help us run the program, including providing DNA kits to Holocaust survivors and their children, ordering pertinent records for families, and hiring translators and local genealogists to optimize our research.

Secular Jewish Circle of Puget Sound is the Washington state chapter of the Society for Humanistic Judaism since 1995.

Secular Jewish Circle of Puget Sound (SJC) is the ONLY Secular Humanistic Jewish congregation in Washington state, based in and around the Puget Sound region. We host Secular Humanistic Jewish holiday services, operate youth and adult education programs, and ordain all manner of lifecycle events, whether or not they're traditionally Jewish.

Many other denominations of Judaism have a history of turning Jews away whom they deem "not Jewish enough," but Secular Humanistic Judaism is a denomination that acknowledges how vast the Jewish diaspora is, and how different all our cultures and lives can be. It does not endeavor to police *your* personal Jewishness. Thus, SJC operates on the self-identification model: Whether you are patrilineal, converted, or interfaith: When you tell us you're Jewish, we believe you, and you are welcome here!

Our work is directed against Antisemitism and xenophobia. 

The organization is an NGO and located in the small town of Breisach with now 15.000 inhabitants in the southwest corner of Germany on the border to Alsace/France on the Rhine river. The Swiss border is only 60 km to the south. 

The organization was founded in 1999 with the aims 1. to purchase the former Jewish school building (built before 1690), 2. to renovate it and 3. to use it according to its historical importance. The building is located in the former Jewish lane, in walking distance to the former synagogue and the older of two Jewish cemeteries. Jews had lived in this quarter between 1640 and 1940. 



The mission according to the statutes is to develop new relationships with Holocaust survivors and their descendants and to work together for a full documentation of the histories of about 250 Jews who had lived here before the Nazi persecution began 1933. They had either become refugees or victims of one of the first deportations in October 1940 to Southwest France (Camp de Gurs). Of those deported the majority became in 1942 and after victims of the deportations from France to Auschwitz concentration camp. 



Again and again groups of Holocaust survivors and their descendants returned to what was once their "Heimat" to commemorate the Jewish community which had been destroyed. They became part of a network: the "Overseas members" or "Friends of the Blue House" and could follow the organization making progress in building up a vibrant institution. During each of those group visits to Breisach the program was partially focussing on interaction with young German people (students), most of them have never met a Jewish person.

 

After finishing the renovation of the historical building in 2003 a 15 year period of volunteer work began with lectures, concerts, guided tours and research. From 2017 on the Blue House staff began to professionalize its reach out to young people and improve its pedagogical work using the archival sources for teaching personal stories. This was made possible with the financial support of a Foundation helping to create a part-time  job for a mediator for historical education and cultural transmission. 



Plans developed to create a small museum, to use the garden for the display of another exhibition and to develop an audioguide for touristic purposes: https://blaueshausbreisach.de/en/geschichte-verein/4869/self-guided-tour-juedisches-leben-in-breisach/



Since 2019 the museum can be visited: "Jewish life in Breisach in 1931" where the everyday life of a Jewish family with two children can be experienced by exploring a small number of objects on display and listening to radioplays (German/English). See: https://blaueshausbreisach.de/en/rundgang-en/2139/9-dauerausstellung/



An exhibition is permanently installed in the Blue House garden (created by the House of the Wannsee Conference Berlin) dealing with the history of the deportation of the southwestern German Jews to Camp de Gurs in 1940 in the context of the Nazi occupation of France (German/French). Information about the history of the Jews of Breisach (1640-1940) was added and about how the Nazis turned Breisach into a dangerous place for Jews after 1933. A special focus was directed on the role of the Breisach railway bridge, across which seven trains with more than 5600 Jews were deported on October 22, 1940 after having been arrested in their houses, expropriated, taken to a train station and forced into a train directed towards the city of Freiburg and from there to Breisach and across the river Rhine into occupied France. See: https://youtu.be/7grIqgQ2xHs.



A second grant by a Federal institution (2020-2022) was used to deepen the historical research, to create materials for teaching and to design a digital handbook as a short introduction to the Gurs deportation using the example of the Breisach Jews (as one of 138 places where Jews were rounded up). See English summary: https://blaueshausbreisach.de/en/neuigkeiten/5956/digital-handbook-gurs-a-search-for-traces/



In summer of 2023 forty Jewish guests from five countries, their families originating in Breisach, shared the celebration of 20 years of the Blue House. A week-long program was prepared and executed with many highlights especially guests meeting students from Breisach and Freiburg. 



The organization has turned in the application for another grant (April 2024 - December 2025) to bring together French and German students to explore the differences of their narratives about the years of Nazi occupation of Alsace. For the 80th anniversary of the end of WW II, the installation of a democratic Germany in 1945 and the development of strong friendly ties between France and Germany a special celebration is in planning for the Breisach bridge. French and German students will work together in a Dance project (under the guidance of Battery Dance Company NY director Jonathan Hollander) creating choreographies and a special choreography for the Breisach bridge. With their participation the young generation will support the plans for a new railroad "bridge for the future" and put emphasis on the strong bond between the youth of both countries.

An experiential and interdisciplinary 7-12th school program based on the tenets of Torah V’Avoda at the foothills of Mount Carmel

Kol Tzofayich, located in the majestic mountains of northern Israel, offers a truly one-of-a-kind school experience. This hands-on, camplike educational phenomenon has quickly grown from 28 to over 200 students in just four years. Offering customized, experiential education, students learn directly how each subject relates to real-world applications and situations. The study of math, for example, is in tandem with cabinetry design, while chemistry is experienced through culinary arts and cosmetology. “We unite real-world experience and classroom academics on a moment-by-moment basis,” says school founder Yehuda Rothner, a dynamo in the education world who was known globally for his phenomenal success running Camp Stone in the U.S. Those worlds must converge on a daily basis holistically in school. Every subject is capable of doing that.” The school, which includes grades 7-12, also offers a sociological and economic breaking-of-barriers, with students of all backgrounds uniting from throughout Israel, as well as the U.S., Russia, Ukraine and Ethiopia. “We provide students a sense of the whole and what the world really has to offer, giving them the skills to be successful in life.”

Jews, Christians, Muslims uniting to serve the poor.

Abrahamic Alliance International unites Jews, Christians, and Muslims for poverty relief and active peacebuilding. We began with a simple dream that compassionate collaboration between Jews, Christians, and Muslims can build lasting bridges of understanding and respect between our communities. By uniting to serve the poor in obedience to divine commands, our grassroots movement is showing the world that peaceful coexistence between Jews, Christians, and Muslims is not a naive and distant dream, but a growing and present reality here and now.

We envision a world where children of Abraham unite to save lives; where Jews, Christians and Muslims enjoy peaceful coexistence and mutual appreciation as our faith is deepened by meaningful encounters with each other; where understanding, humility and respect replace ignorance, arrogance and contempt; where diverse yet faithful worshipers of the God of Abraham move beyond dialogue to cooperative action, loving our neighbor together until the hungry are fed, the naked are clothed, the sick receive care and the orphan is raised with love, compassion and generosity. We envision a world where God's faithfulness to bless all nations through Abraham's offspring is expressed in wonderfully new and creative ways through Jews, Christians and Muslims striving to obey all that the prophets have spoken.
