The Auschwitz-Birke­nau Memo­r­i­al Foun­da­tion (ABMF) is a New York-based non-prof­it orga­ni­za­tion estab­lished in 2012. Its mis­sion is to safe­guard the mem­o­ry of Auschwitz-Birke­nau through the preser­va­tion of its orig­i­nal arti­facts and bring­ing edu­ca­tion about Auschwitz to every Amer­i­can stu­dent. Under the lead­er­ship of its Chair­man, Ronald S. Laud­er, the ABMF believes that the exis­tence of the Auschwitz-Birke­nau Memo­r­i­al and Muse­um, its authen­tic­i­ty, and its mes­sage will help pre­vent a reoc­cur­rence of the hatred, racism, anti­semitism, and xeno­pho­bia that led to the Holocaust.

The Auschwitz-Birke­nau Memo­r­i­al Foun­da­tion’s work con­sists of three main pillars:

• Preser­va­tion of the authen­tic remains of Auschwitz-Birkenau
• Holo­caust education 
• Sur­vivors’ out­reach in the Unit­ed States
