Paul V. Godfrey, C.M. O.Ont. Honorary Chairman, AGPI

“I am immensely proud of the global reach we are having through The Abraham Global Peace Initiative. Its incredible to see just how far we have come in as little as two years – to become one of the foremost global activists and thought leaders in the fight against Antisemitism, in pro-Israel advocacy and in the promotion of universal human rights. It’s an honor and a pleasure to serve in the capacity of Honorary Chairman of this amazing organization”.

Sam Korman, 17 year-old Student Leader at AGPI

”My maternal great grandparents were Holocaust survivors.I have personally seen the escalation of Antisemitism. I came to the realization that the best way to fight for a cause that one believes

in is to step up and act. I have taken the initiative and over the

past three months, have built and launched an AGPI youth-focused

Instagram account called AGPIYouth. I want to reach youth my age and raise awareness amongst young people in my community and around the world.”

William Friedman is a prominent lawyer and serves on AGPI’s Board of Governors

“As the son of two Holocaust Survivors, I am proud to support the incredible work of The Abraham Global Peace Initiative. The organization acts locally and globally to memorialize the Holocaust and to combat distortion and denial. As survivors pass away, this work is important now more than ever. If you are a child or descendent of Holocaust Survivors, there is no better legacy you can provide to them than aligning your philanthropy with AGPI. If not us then who?”

Stephen Clark is a prominent Canadian lawyer and a founding board member of AGPI

“As an observer of history, I am deeply concerned about the world my grandchildren will inherit. I have visited the death camps and following the unspeakable crimes against humanity committed during the Holocaust, today we are still asking ourselves if it can happen again. That is just wrong. The Abraham Global Peace Initiative is uniquely focused on creating a mass human movement as a counterweight to the hate and intolerance we are seeing today. No matter your faith or background, we invite you to join us in this important campaign”.

Rhonda Travis is the daughter of Holocaust Survivors, an activist and a registered psychotherapist, helping people with trauma grow through their pain.

“I have never felt I am here by coincidence. As a daughter of two Holocaust survivors, my parents’ lives were spared in order that my life would help fulfill their destiny. The truth must be told and extended beyond their story and mine, into the future.

Today more than ever, I understand my responsibility to bring this message to the world; not from a position of fear, but from love. I am completely dedicated to this mission. I am grateful to AGPI for providing such a platform, as they are committed to ensuring that I am not alone in this important task”.
