Triangles of Truth is an international movement of students dedicated to honoring victims of the Holocaust by giving charity in their names to meet the humanitarian needs of current victims of genocide and mass atrocity.

 

Participants of the project sell colorful paper triangles, each for a dollar, in high schools and universities around the world, at once raising awareness of human rights abuses and empowering communities to give meaning to the ideal of “Never Again” by taking action. 


What was started by a small group of students in a Holocaust class at Boca Raton High School in Florida in 2007 has surpassed hopes and challenged imaginations. Today, close to 40 institutions have launched campaigns and, together, raised close to $50,000 for present-day victims of genocide.


Together we can and will stop the genocide occurring around the world, for the sake of those suffering, and for the memories of the Holocaust victims who perished when so few people chose to save them. We hope to prove that we have learned from the lessons of the Holocaust and can use our knowledge to prevent present-day and future genocide.
