What Is the Speaker Bureau?
The Holocaust
Center coordinates approximately 20 Holocaust survivors, liberators, and descendents
of survivors, arranging for them to speak at schools and community organizations
primarily in Washington State, but also throughout the Pacific Northwest.Each year, the Speakers Bureau speaks to audiences totaling more than 20,000!
How do I request a speaker?
Please read the procedure guide and submit the information requested on the speaker request form.
How early do I need to submit a request?
At least 2-3 weeks in advance of the requested date.
How much time does a speaker need?
A minimum of one hour. Some speakers require longer periods of time.
Can a speaker present multiple times in one day?
No. We encourage you to combine classes or groups. If you need multiple presentations in one day, we will try to arrange for more than one speaker.
What is the cost of hosting a speaker?
There is no required fee for requesting or hosting a speaker. While the speakers volunteer their time to speak to groups, there is a cost to run this program. Many schools or groups offer an honorarium to the speaker. Speakers frequently donate this money to the Holocaust Center.
