To have chosen to do nothing was to accept what Hitler and the Germans had done; to destroy all presence and memory of the Jews, to turn us and memory of us into dirt and ashes.

What We Do

A descendants' group established to restore Jewish cemeteries in Poland.

Friends of Jewish Cemeteries in Poland (FJCP) is a descendants’ group established to restore Jewish cemeteries in Poland.  We serve primarily as an advisory resource to such projects.  We are an affiliate of Friends of Jewish Heritage in Poland, a U.S.-based non-profit organization.  In support of our mission, we work with organizations engaged in preserving Jewish heritage or restoring Jewish cemeteries; educate others on our activities about restoration projects in Poland; and identify resources to support descendants and local town inhabitants. FJCP welcomes anyone interested in restoring Jewish cemeteries to collaborate with us.
