The Supreme Court of the Russian Federation liquidated the International Memorial. This is a big blow to the work of the Memorial.

But no matter what decisions the court makes, the Memorial cannot be liquidated. Memorial is not only legal entities, but everyone who remembers the Soviet terror and opposes modern repressions and wars.

The Memorial still has a lot of projects that should continue and develop, and new ones should appear.

Other organizations will continue the work of various Memorial projects, and they can be helped by supporting the Memorial Foundation.

All funds sent via donate.memo.ru cannot be arrested by a court decision and will be used to continue the further work of the Memorial projects.

If you wish to support our work, you can also help by donating to Mémorial France.
Why we need your support
We know that our museum collection and the archive are in high demand. We know that many historical documents from the Soviet era are still waiting to be published. We know that many people still seek help in searching for their relatives abducted recently. We know that more than 300 political prisoners and their families need our help. We know that our support is needed with cases filed in Russian courts and the European Court of Human Rights.

We know that people want to learn, remember, seek truth and justice. Our common mission, shared memory and responsibility is to continue this work in Russia.
We know that our databases are not yet complete. We constantly help people to find out about the fates and burial places of their family members
