KFHEC- The Kleinman Family Holocaust Education Center

The center was established to document the history of the Holocaust, with the purpose of perpetuating the legacy of those who remained loyal to Jewish faith and practice after the Holocaust, and worked to rebuild the Torah Judaism in the United States.[12] The KFHEC enables both Jewish and diverse audiences of all faiths and background to better understand the Holocaust in its entirety with a special emphasis on the Orthodox Jewish perspective and experience.

Kleinman is the driving force behind it, as evidenced by the fact that it bears his family’s name. As a son of Holocaust survivors, and in his capacity as President of the KFHEC, he has been an important contributor at many Holocaust–related events. Kleinman describes the KFHEC as a venue where a range of organizations and programs can join their resources and make them work in a comprehensive way.

The new KFHEC museum is located in the Borough Park section of Brooklyn, NY, and is scheduled to open in 2017.[13] In 2016, officials of the museum stated that the KFHEC is expanding and rebranding as The Amud Aish Memorial Museum.[14]
