Holocaust Learning Experience

What Holocaust Learning Experience does

Holocaust Learning Experience (HLE) is a US-based nonprofit organization founded in 2004 and headquartered in West Palm Beach, Florida, at 4847 David S. Mack Drive, an address owned by MorseLife Health System. The organization was developed by MorseLife Health System and operates as an educational initiative under that umbrella, using a morselife.org contact email and website copyright. With a team of 7 employees, HLE exists to deliver Holocaust education to K-12 students and educators, framed around the mission of cultivating "upstanders" who combat bullying, bias, prejudice, antisemitism, and hate.

HLE's core product is a Learning Management System (LMS) that delivers grade-appropriate, turnkey Holocaust education lessons to school districts nationwide. The LMS packages pre-recorded lessons using primary-source historical footage and Holocaust survivor testimonies, a comprehensive teacher's resource guide with reflective prompts, and a structured orientation process that enables teachers without Holocaust expertise to deliver the curriculum with minimal training. The LMS is sold via direct outreach to K-12 administrators and curriculum coordinators, primarily positioned as a solution for meeting state-mandated Holocaust education requirements. Two in-person South Florida programs complement the digital LMS: the Gendelman Children's Holocaust Holocaust Memorial Field Trip at a memorial site in the region, and the Living History Program, which connects students and community members directly with Holocaust survivors or their descendants.

The business model is donation-driven and nonprofit in structure. Revenue is sourced from charitable contributions by individuals, foundations, and organizations, supplemented by potential subscription or quote-based partnerships with school districts for LMS access. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and the LMS appears to be offered to districts at no cost or on subsidized terms. The go-to-market motion is sales-led, combining digital distribution (LMS nationwide) with regional in-person programming (South Florida), supported by content marketing through the HLE website, a LinkedIn presence, and educator testimonials from districts such as Ben Gamla Charter School, West Orange Public Schools, Washington County (FL), Charlotte County (FL), and Dixie County Middle High School.
