Margaret’s Legacy

Holocaust Learning & Jewish Advocacy Centre

In partnership with Margaret's Legacy, our programs aim to honour the memory of Holocaust survivors and victims by educating the community about the atrocities of the Holocaust and promoting Jewish advocacy.

Margaret’s Legacy was  founded in 2008 in Hamilton, Ontario, by Danna Horwood. This organization began as a dedication to providing high-quality Holocaust education, rooted in the micro-history of Horwood’s grandparents, survivors Margaret and Arthur Weisz.
