Our Values

Kulanu Kedoshim—We Are All Holy

Jewish tradition teaches that all people are created equal and are holy. All of humanity was created “from the same mold” and we are therefore all deserving of respect, honor, and dignity, no matter what differences exist between us.

American Democracy & Civics

In nearly every land where Jews have lived for thousands of years, they were discriminated against and denied citizenship rights. The intersection of Jewish and American identity is unique and made possible by the pillars of democracy on which America was founded and by the unprecedented acceptance and contributions of Jews throughout our nation’s history.

Tikkun Olam—Repairing the World

Jewish tradition teaches that the world is inherently good but fractured, and that it is up to us as human beings to repair the world through acts of kindness that make it more whole.

Tzedek—Justice as a Jewish Value

The book of Deuteronomy commands us, “Justice, justice, shall you pursue.” The pursuit of justice for all people is a key value in Judaism. The Hebrew word for justice also means doing the right thing. Jewish tradition demands that we dedicate ourselves to fighting injustice wherever we see it, whether or not we are personally affected.

Holocaust Education Resource Center logo

Holocaust Education Resource Center (HERC)

The Holocaust Education Resource Center (HERC) educates students, teachers, and communities about the Holocaust as both a genocide and a warning of the dangers of unchecked hatred and antisemitism. By exploring the atrocities of the Holocaust and the evolving manifestations of antisemitism, we inspire future generations to challenge ignorance and combat all forms of hate.

Jewish Museum Milwaukee

Jewish Museum Milwaukee is dedicated to preserving and presenting the history of the Jewish people in Wisconsin and celebrating the continuum of Jewish heritage and culture. The history of American Jews is rooted in thousands of years of searching for freedom and equality. We are committed to sharing this story and the life lessons it brings with it, so that we may enhance the public’s awareness and appreciation of Jewish life and culture.
