RUTH: Remember Us The Holocaust is a local nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the stories of Holocaust survivors. At this time they have an exhibition in San Diego on the second floor of downtown’s Central Library.
The extensive exhibition, featuring stories and artifacts from the Holocaust and World War II, has previously been located at the Chula Vista and La Jolla libraries. The organization is seeking to create a permanent museum.

You can go to the associated GoFundMe page by clicking here, where you’ll find a detailed description. The hope is to make this uniform part of the RUTH: Remember Us The Holocaust museum collection, where it can be preserved and shared with thousands of people.
