The Butterfly Project is a San Diego-based organization that utilizes Holocaust education, art, and testimony to promote empathy and social responsibility in classrooms, museums, and community centers. Through their programming, participants learn about the dangers of hatred and bigotry, while also honoring the 1.5 million children who lost their lives during the Holocaust by painting ceramic butterflies as symbols of resilience and hope.
The organization offers school programming, community programming, and film screenings, all aimed at teaching students and participants about hope, resilience, and kindness, and inspiring them to stand up against social injustice. The Butterfly Project's mission is to ensure that the lessons of the Holocaust are never forgotten, and to encourage individuals to take action in creating a more peaceful world.
