On October 27, 2018, 11 Jews from three congregations were murdered while worshiping in what became the deadliest antisemitic attack in the United States. In the years since the tragedy, incidents of antisemitism and identity-based hate, often coupled with deadly violence, have continued to rise.
In spring 2022, we established a new 501(c)(3), Tree of Life Inc., to rebuild at the site where the attack took place. The Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh is part of the new Tree of Life organization. This new organization will educate and inspire individuals and communities from across our nation to recognize and stand up against antisemitism through remembrance, experience, and action.
