Partners

We are very grateful for the support we have been receiving since 2015 both from private individuals and different institutions. Cleaning the Jewish cemetery, organization of the Marches of Remembrance and exhibition in the regional museum, commemoration of Jewish mass graves, – these and other projects would not have been realized without the support of Brzesko residents, descendants of Bresko Jews and our partners:

Donors

Our work would not have been possible without generous financial support of many people and institutions. Even the smallest donation is of great value because it is an expression of our memory, our respect for people who had been living in Brzesko for several centuries, co-creating the town’s history and had been murdered in the Holocaust only because of being Jewish. Over the past few years, we have managed to raise money for two monuments on Jewish mass graves, as well as for the work of the Foundation for Documentation of Jewish Cemeteries and the creation of this website.
