The goal of the monument is to provide a place of gathering, to commemorate victims of Ukrainian genocide (4th Saturday in November), and to provide education about the crime against humanity, and violation of human rights. Ms. Kominko further noted that Holodomor Mobile Classroom, a bus that serves as a movie theater, tours communities in order for citizens to learn about the Holodomor history.
