What Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County does

The Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit museum and educational center founded in 1992 by Holocaust survivors and located at the Welwyn Preserve, 100 Crescent Beach Road, Glen Cove, New York. The organization's mission is to preserve Holocaust memory and promote tolerance through survivor testimonies, museum exhibits, and educational programs delivered to students, educators, law enforcement, and medical professionals. HMTC serves over 35,000 students and professionals annually, primarily K-12 audiences across Long Island school districts (meeting New York State Holocaust education requirements), all incoming Nassau and Suffolk Police Cadets, nurses and healthcare professionals, and the general public through on-site visits and traveling exhibits.

HMTC operates as a unified educational platform combining a permanent physical museum with a portfolio of programming products including guided tours, school programs (delivered on-site and at schools), adult and professional training (law enforcement and medical), survivor testimony videos under the 'Stories of Courage' banner, the hmTv podcast series, the Myth Busters antisemitism-education video series, teacher and parent resource kits, traveling exhibits, virtual tours, and a Heritage Travel Program. The underlying delivery model is conventional media and in-person instruction — no proprietary technology stack, AI components, or software product are disclosed in source materials.

Revenue is generated through three streams: charitable donations, tiered annual memberships ($25 students/educators/veterans through $1,000 Patron; free for survivors and liberators), and corporate sponsorships from a coalition including PSEG Long Island, Bethpage Federal Credit Union, BDG, B2K Development, Bristal Assisted Living, David Mack, Ripco, Greenfield's Shop Rite, NFP, and Local 138 of the International Union of Operating Engineers. Memberships are integrated with the North American Reciprocal Museum Association (NARM), providing access to over 1,300 cultural institutions across North America. Government arts funding via the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) supplements operating revenue. Specific revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. The organization employs approximately 21 staff and is governed by a board of directors.

Others

• Anti-Defamation League (ADL): National civil rights organization combating antisemitism and hate. Not a museum, but directly adjacent to HMTC's mission through shared antisemitism education, Holocaust awareness curriculum, and the ADL Translate Hate Glossary featured in HMTC's resource library.

Regional players
