Friends of Florida Atlantic University are being asked to help keep open the school’s Arthur and Emalie Gutterman Family Center for Holocaust and Human Rights Education through private donations. The center’s operations include working with kindergarten through high school teachers on Holocaust curriculum and managing a Holocaust speakers’ bureau.
The center was established following a state mandate that schools provide educational programs about the impact of the Holocaust, and opened at FAU’s Boca Raton campus in 1996. Through its outreach, the Gutterman Family CHHRE helps to ensure that the lessons of the Holocaust are not forgotten.
