TheHOLOCAUST LEARNING AND EDUCATION FUND INC. is a not for profit corporation that is incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida and has further been qualified as a tax exempt organization by the Internal Revenue Service. This organization was formed by Craig and Barbara Weiner in 2013 for the express purpose of broadening Holocaust education amongst Americas students and to clearly illustrate to all young people how relevant the lessons to be learned from the Holocaust are to their lives today. During travels through Europe focusing on the history of the Holocaust the Weiner family found that there was a growing need for the expansion of Holocaust education within American schools and thus embarked on a program to pursue and encourage a greater awareness of the atrocities that result from intolerance of others.
