This is Personal: Epilogue
Mark Blumenthal | June 24, 2009
A follow-up to my post two weeks ago on the interactions my father-in-law and family had with considerate and professional staff of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. The impetus for that post, of course, was the murder of Officer Stephen Tyrone Johns as he stood guard at the Museum.
Given the outpouring of kind words I received to that post, I thought readers would want to know that in order to assist the Johns family, the Museum has established the USHMM Officer Johns Family Fund and is accepting donations on its behalf. They pledge that one hundred percent of your gift will be forwarded directly to the family of Officer Johns, but note that under IRS regulations gifts such as this are not tax-deductible.
You can donate online, by telephone or via U.S. mail:
Checks payable to USHMM Officer Johns Family Fund may be mailed to USHMM, 100 Raoul Wallenberg Place, SW, Washington DC 20024.
You may also make a gift by calling toll free 877-91USHMM (877-918-7466) from 8:00am to 8:00pm Eastern time.
