The beginning of the Requiem Blog

Requiem, the sculptural monument to honor those lost in the ravine Babyn Yar has been given life! We are now partnered with the US-Ukraine Foundation and have begun the process of fund-raising to bring this monument, and a whole accompanying exhibition, to the public. This monument will become the center of what will be an exhibition donated to travel to Jewish History Museums and any other interested venues across the country. You can go to the website to read about the project.
Seth Weingarten has generously donated 10K to start the project.
If you'd like to help, we could certainly use your support.
Donations are tax-deductible through the US-Ukraine Foundation at 202-223-2228. Please specify that the money is to go to the Babyn Yar Sculptural Project. All sizes of donations are accepted.
Keep posted to this blog to see the progress of this massive undertaking.

Peace,
The Babyn Yar Sculptural Project
