PFW continues its unwavering support for the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect whose Mission is to preserves the legacy of the young diarist through education and arts programming. We work to create the kinder and fairer world of which Anne Frank dreamed. We will help them sponsor and present to theatrical presentations to help address human rights issues by bringing the story of Anne Frank to life. The program includes and actor portraying Anne Frank, and other notable figures that interact with the audience.

Alexandra Gellner (L) and Wesli Spencer (R). There is an exhibition which has been sent across the country that brings the lessons of the Holocaust and social justice to schools. The Center seeks to offer performances and programs to areas that are in need of community-wide events to inspire discussion and unity, especially after incidents or noticeable patterns of hate or injustice within the community. We have also supported the sending of a rapid response team to Pittsburgh after the anti-Semitic attack on their synagogue. The team member led the community through meetings designed to help the healing after such a horrific event.
