The Holocaust Remembrance Award
The
status of "Righteous Among Nations" is conferred
by the Holocaust Remembrance Committee of Yad Vashem
in Jerusalem on gentiles who, at great risk to their
own and their families' lives, rescued Jews during
the Holocaust. The family of one of our Board members
has been given this honor and presented with a medal
to posthumously recognize the heroism of their aunt
Maria Leszczynski-Eckhardt, who hid a young Jewish
girl in her home in Tarnopol, Poland throughout the
war. Kalina Kleinberg and her family were reunited
with the Leszczynski-Eckhardt families at a special
ceremony on May 4, 1997.
