About If You Heard What I Heard

If You Heard What I Heard is a nonprofit organization dedicated to documenting the stories of the grandchildren of Holocaust survivors, the last generation to hear survivor stories firsthand. We create modern Holocaust media that humanizes the history of the Holocaust, drives empathy, and inspires action to stand up to antisemitism in all forms. Listen to the powerful stories, and what their survival and resilience means for all of us today. Join us in honoring these survivors and taking action to fight antisemitism in all forms. If you heard what I heard, you would never forget, and you would do everything possible to make sure what happened to our grandparents and their families never happens again.
