Capital Campaign
In honor of our 25th Anniversary, VHM kicked off a $2.5 million Capital Campaign. The campaign’s goals are two-fold: to improve and expand what we offer visitors, scholars and educators; to improve the energy efficiency, comfort, and security in the building. To date, the Capital Campaign has raised $2 million.

Donate an Artifact
Materials which are donated to the Museum are carefully cataloged and preserved, in order to help demonstrate how genocide affects all aspects of everyday life and the societies where it occurred.
Make a Tribute Gift
A meaningful way to celebrate friends or honor loved ones is by making a tribute gift. Whether it’s to celebrate an anniversary, congratulate a friend, or honor a family member who’s passed, a personalized gift is a significant way to remember and connect. Make a tribute gift today and we will send a card to your loved one.
Exhibit Renovation Campaign
The Virginia Holocaust Museum is currently undergoing a multi-year renovation of our core exhibits. This process will update, modernize and expand the main exhibits, while focusing on threading the voices of Virginia’s Survivors into the narrative. These renovations will support our mission to educate and inspire future generations of Virginians to fight prejudice and indifference.
