"The Simon Wiesenthal Center (SWC) is a global Jewish human rights activist organization that confronts anti-Semitism, hate,
defends the safety of Israel and Jews worldwide, and teaches the lessons of the Holocaust for future generations through its
advocacy and education programs, investigations, research, reporting, media, films, and museums. Headquartered in Los Angeles
the SWC has an international footprint with offices in New York, Chicago, Miami, Toronto, Paris, Berlin, Jerusalem, and Buenos
Aires, is an accredited Non-Governmental Organization at the United Nations, UNESCO, the Organization of American States,
the Latin American Parliament, and the Council of Europe, and maintains relationships with the highest levels of governments
throughout the world". ("About the Simon Wiesenthal Center")
The SWC was established in 1977 by Rabbi Marvin Hier, and named in honor of Simon Wiesenthal, a Jewish Austrian Holocaust
survivor and Nazi hunter. The SWC also runs The Musuem of Tolerance, Los Angeles; Museum of Tolerance, Jerusalem; and Moriah
Films.
