04/22/2021 HHREC-Memory Keepers GenerationsForward Speaker-Wendy Sandler

Please join the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center Memory Keepers GenerationsForward Speaker Wendy Sandler on April 22 at 7 p.m. from the safety and comfort of your own home.

Wendy shares the story of her mother’s journey from a Jewish six year old child, to a Catholic child, and back again to an ardent Jew. She credits her blue eyes with saving her because she did not look Jewish and could pass for Aryan. Her story is about luck and the Upstanding actions of a Priest, who risked his life to help secure proper documentation for the family.

It is a story about hope…and doing the right thing in the face of grave danger.

Wendy is active in UJA-Federation of New York and other charitable organization in Westchester County. She also is a Gallery Educator, who leads tours for school age students at the Museum of Jewish Heritage, A Living Memorial to the Holocaust in New York City.

For more information and the Zoom link, please contact Millie Jasper mjasper@hhrecny.org
