This Holocaust Teacher Resource Center (TRC) web site, is dedicated to the memory of the six million Jewish people slaughtered during the Holocaust and the millions other people slaughtered during the Nazi era. It strives to combat prejudice and bigotry by transforming the horrors of the Holocaust into positive lessons to help make this a better and safer world for everybody. This site is sponsored by the Holocaust Education Foundation, Inc.

Educators, (kindergarten through college) will find at this site materials which can be brought into the classroom and studied. Whenever possible entire documents are included and may be downloaded for direct use in the classroom.

Learn about the founder, Dr. Mark Nataupsky, select here.
You can reach him by e-mail at marknat@Holocaust-trc.org or by signing the Guest Book.

The expressed goal of this web site is make this a better and safer world for everybody.

The crisis in Darfur mandates that each of us take some action.  We can not hide behind the statement that we did not know what was going on.  We know and we must respond.

One suggestion is to make a donation to Global Relief that is focused on Darfur.  Please click on DARFUR
and follow the link to make your donation.  Thanks to your donation, somebody in Darfur will suffer a little bit less than if no action is taken.

Mark Nataupsky, Ph.D.
HEFI Founder and President
