The Survivor Mitzvah Project is a humanitarian effort to aid the last survivors of the Holocaust in Eastern Europe who are still suffering over 70 years after the start of the War. Their families and communities destroyed by the Nazis, they struggle in their few remaining years, lacking the means to buy even the most basic of human necessities: food, medicine, heat and shelter. Most live alone in horrific conditions. The Survivor Mitzvah Project offers help quickly and directly to these survivors, helps ensure that they may live out their last years with some measure of comfort, support, and dignity.
The project was founded by television director Zane Buzby, 2011 recipient of the KCET/Union Bank LOCAL HERO AWARD.
MOT stands for Museum of Tolerance, the only museum of its kind in the world. It is the educational arm of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, an internationally renowned human rights organization dedicated to promoting respect and mutual understanding, through education, community partnerships, and civic engagement.
