Irena Sendler - Profile in Courage







   

During WWII Irena Sendler saved numerous children from 
the Nazi holocaust. She managed to smuggle out 2500 
children. She was caught and her. Irena kept a record 
of the names of all the kids she smuggled out and kept 
them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in her back yard. 
After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have 
survived it  and reunited the family. 



Amazing courage.
