Our story

We are living links
to history.

3G Colorado preserves the legacies of Holocaust survivors, educates our communities, and connects the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of survivors across Colorado.

How 3G Colorado Came to Be

3G Colorado was founded by descendants of Holocaust survivors who felt a calling — not just to remember, but to act. As the generation of survivors grows smaller, the urgency of preserving their testimonies and carrying their lessons forward grows larger.

We are the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of people who survived the unsurvivable. We grew up with their stories woven into our identities — the silence at the dinner table, the numbers on a forearm, the photographs of people who never made it out. That inheritance carries weight, and responsibility.

3G Colorado was established as the Denver-based chapter of Living Links, the national organization founded by the children and grandchildren of survivors. We bring that mission to Colorado — educating our communities, supporting our descendants, and making sure the phrase "never again" is backed by action, not just memory.

Our Values

🕮

Memory

We are living links to history. Every story we carry, every name we speak aloud is an act of preservation against forgetting.

🙋

Education

We believe the lessons of the Holocaust belong to everyone. We bring those lessons into schools, synagogues, churches, and community spaces.

🤝

Community

Being a descendant can feel isolating. We create space for 3G and 4G descendants to find each other, share, and heal together.

Testimony

We train and support descendants to share their grandparents' testimonies with confidence, accuracy, and heart.

Action

"Never again" requires active vigilance. We stand against intolerance in all its forms, in our own time and our own communities.

🏅

Inclusion

Our community welcomes survivors, descendants, spouses, educators, and allies — everyone who believes memory matters.

Our Board of Directors

3G Colorado is governed by a five-member volunteer board of descendants, educators, and community leaders united by a shared commitment to memory and action.
