Association for the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

Since its establishment in 1989 the Association for the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (»Förderkreis Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas e. V.«) has stood up for the erection of a memorial to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust in the centre of Berlin.
However, the work of the Association was not finished with the opening of the Memorial in May 2005. Its aims are to increase the acceptance of the Memorial in the German population and to raise funds for the continuing work on the Room of Names in the Information Centre. For this the Association organises readings, lectures, discussions, concerts and regularly offers guided tours through the Information Centre. Funds are raised by means of donation campaigns and charity events. More than 100 members support the aims of the Association for the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Prominent personalities from politics, economy and culture hold positions in the board of directors. The board is chaired by the publicist Prof. Lea Rosh.
