Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We live in Minsk and through The Together Plan Charity we have come to learn more about the little known history of the Jewish people of Belarus. Over 100,000 Jewish people died in the Minsk Ghetto but this is history we knew little about. We have come to learn about the 'Making History Together' Holocaust Education Programme, created by The Together Plan which is teaching young people in the UK and in Minsk about this little known history. Our history. 

The students in Minsk who participated in the programme are learning to be craftsmen and have said that they want to design and build a bench out of metal, and have it installed in the Minsk Park that was once the Jewish cemetery. We want to try to raise the money that will make this a reality. The bench will be in the name of a Minsk Ghetto survivor and will be a place to come and sit and think about life.

Please support us to make this a reality and show that this can be a real TOGETHER PLAN!

About the charity

The Together Plan

Verified by JustGiving

RCN 1154167
The Together Plan is a UK charity dedicated to the rehabilitation, repair and revival of Jewish communities coming out of collective trauma in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, enabling, rather than providing, through a self-help approach. In spite of the traumatic past, there are many who yearn to reconnect with their lost identity. It is the mission of The Together Plan charity, to help those Jews still living in the region learn how to rebuild their communities, and also to reconnect those in the diaspora to their ancestry and the homes they left behind. The Together Plan is playing a vital and much needed role in the repair and renewal process for a better connected and meaningful Jewish future for Jews everywhere. We send humanitarian aid and resources that reach Jewish and non-Jewish communities throughout Belarus and our community work helps to bring Jewish and non-Jewish people together for a better civil society.
