JOB: Capital Campaign Event<br />
DESCRIPTION: The JCC wanted to educate the public on tolerance by using the<br />
events of the Holocaust as a teaching tool. Our charge was to help people make a<br />
personal connection with history, while delivering a message of hope. We created<br />
consistent visuals using a butterfly, which is a meaningful symbol to the Jewish<br />
community, and which is also seen as a symbol of renewal to the general public.<br />
SURVIVOR CARDS<br />
Eight different 4x6 cards<br />
with stories and photos of<br />
survivors ensure they are<br />
not forgotten.<br />
Meta Neufeld & Gunther Mendel<br />
Meta Neufeld and Gunther Mendel were arrested separately<br />
while living in Belgium and met in the Mechelen detention/<br />
transit camp, north of Brussels. On April 18, 1943, they were<br />
placed on a train known as Convoy XX, with the destination of<br />
Auschwitz.<br />
According to records the oldest prisoner was 92 years old; the<br />
youngest, only 39 days old. Many began developing an escape<br />
plan when they learned the trains moved slowly through<br />
Belgium, especially around the curves.<br />
Near Boortmeebek, the engineer noticed a red light on the<br />
track, a universal signal to stop. Three young men from the<br />
town had placed a hurricane lamp covered with red tissue in<br />
the path of the train. They succeeded in opening the railcars<br />
and freeing 17 people, but the train started again. 219 more<br />
tried to escape, including Meta and Gunther, who both jumped<br />
from the moving railcar.<br />
Meta and Gunther returned to Brussels separately and were<br />
hidden by a Belgian sympathizer in an attic similar to Anne Frank<br />
until their liberation in September 1944. They were married<br />
August 1, 1945 in Brussels, Belgium and had their first daughter,<br />
Monique. They relocated to the United States in 1950 and had<br />
daughter Linda, in Chicago, Illinois. The family has grown to<br />
include four grandsons and four great-grandchildren.<br />

Railcar Experience<br />
Beginning in 1942, trains began to be used to transport<br />
people to death camps. The Jews often had to pay for a<br />
one-way ticket, with children receiving half-price fares.<br />
Most were told they were being taken to labor camps. The<br />
deportations were often referred to as “resettlement.” Using<br />
such euphemisms allayed the fears of the Jews. The trips<br />
were often long, taking slow and circuitous routes in order<br />
to weaken the passengers. The discomfort suffered on the<br />
railcars made the camp seem like a better place; most were<br />
ready for a shower upon arrival (another euphemism for the<br />
gas chambers).<br />
“’Be a mensch‘ [a person of integrity],<br />
were the last words that my father<br />
said to me before he was led to the<br />
death trains and disappeared forever.<br />
Moments later, in complete clarity<br />
about his fate, he would be led off to<br />
the box cars of the train that was<br />
to take him...to Auschwitz.There<br />
he would be murdered in the gas<br />
chambers.<br />

Charlotte Adelman<br />
Charlotte Adelman was born in<br />
Paris, France, on March 26, 1932.<br />
She was raised in a traditional<br />
Jewish household with her<br />
mother, Razel, her father, Herschel,<br />
and her brother, Max.<br />
When Charlotte was only eight<br />
years old, in 1940, the Nazis<br />
invaded France and occupied<br />
Paris. During the next four years,<br />
Charlotte was constantly in danger and on the run. She was<br />
hidden in various places and had many narrow escapes.<br />
Unfortunately, Razel was captured by the Nazis in 1942 and<br />
deported to Auschwitz where she died.<br />
After the war and having been separated from her family for nearly five years, Charlotte was reunited with her<br />
father, and after two years of searching Red Cross facilities, they finally found her brother. In 1957 Charlotte<br />
moved to Montreal, where she fell in love and married Alex Adelman, the love of her life. They raised two<br />
children in their 50 years of marriage.<br />
Clara Hercz was born in 1930 in<br />
Nyirbator, Hungary. Although<br />
life was typically good, there<br />
always was a feeling of unease<br />
from the anti-Semitic actions of<br />
the townspeople, who beat up<br />
the town’s Jews even before the<br />
Germans arrived.<br />
In April 1944, 14-year-old Clara had five hours to pack. She and her<br />
family were sent on a cattle car to Auschwitz. She remembers 75-80<br />
people in the rail car, and she will never forget the sound of the door<br />
being slammed.<br />
Clara lost her entire family at Auschwitz. Clara was put in a cattle<br />
car again after a month in Auschwitz. The prisoners were taken to a<br />
second camp in Poland, and on the train they had no food or water.<br />
Clara was later able to escape, walking from Poland to Czechoslovakia, and then getting a train back to<br />
Hungary. She eventually moved to Pennsylvania where she was able to live with some cousins. “I am<br />
Hungarian by birth and Jewish by religion, but American because this is where they opened their doors and<br />
gave me a home.”<br />

The Center for Holocaust Education & Human Dignity is dedicated to<br />
educating the public about the Holocaust in order to take action on<br />
issues facing the world today. As a world-class museum, the lessons of<br />
the Holocaust and the message of human dignity will extend throughout<br />
the Southwest on a daily basis.<br />
Honoring victims of the Holocaust is the centerpiece of the project,<br />
while the name is meant to convey the larger message that dignity is an<br />
inherent human right.<br />
The East Valley JCC in Chandler, Arizona conceived of the Center as an<br />
extension of its events centered on diversity, understanding and human<br />
dignity. The Center will be built on the JCC’s land adjacent to its existing<br />
building, which was originally intended for a JCC expansion and is now<br />
dedicated to an integrated campus approach.<br />
Exhibits will include Holocaust history and education, exhibits on<br />
other genocides, and rotating exhibits on current diversity and<br />
tolerance issues.<br />
The Railcar<br />
In early 2012, the East Valley JCC acquired the railcar from Macedonia,<br />
which was occupied by Germany during World War II. Railcars were<br />
integral to the German’s ability to transport and murder mass numbers<br />
of Jews as they worked to carry out the “Final Solution”. This railcar has<br />
been certified as ‘being of the type and era’ used to transport Holocaust<br />
victims to death camps.<br />
The Center for Holocaust Education & Human Dignity commissioned<br />
an expert in the preservation of artifacts to research the history and<br />
significance of the car, while preserving it as closely as possible to its<br />
Yugoslavia between 1915 and 1925, while elements of the car, specifically<br />
some of the windows, were fabricated in the late 1800’s.<br />
Maintenance markings indicate the car was in service during the time<br />
of Holocaust, although it has not yet been confirmed that it transported<br />
people. The last maintenance markings indicate that the car was in service<br />
in 1976. The car was purchased as scrap metal from the Macedonian Railway<br />
Authority and shipped to the Port of Los Angeles, then transported by<br />
freight to Arizona.<br />
The railcar is significant as a symbol of the millions of people whose lives<br />
and families were destroyed and subjected to the worst of human nature.<br />
This railcar has traveled more than 11 thousand miles to fulfill its new<br />
purpose: to become a centerpiece in a place dedicated to human dignity,<br />
serving as a symbol of honor and respect.<br />
The railcar will be on limited display until it takes its place as the<br />
signature artifact in the Center for Holocaust Education & Human Dignity<br />
in Chandler, AZ.<br />
current state. Research shows the car was of German design and made in

As the most senior Governing Board member, I always<br />
place as paramount the responsibility to ensure our<br />
school facilities are maintained to the highest standards<br />
along with being financially frugal with public funds. I<br />
promise to make certain CUSD continues to be both wise<br />
in its budgeting and ensure our students have safe and<br />
well maintained facilities.<br />
—ANNETTE AUXIER Governing Board Member<br />
Please vote Yes on this bond measure when you receive your<br />

As a Chandler City Councilmember, one of my key objectives<br />

School Bonds are used exclusively to meet capital improvements and<br />
structural maintenance needs.<br />
Bond money will be used to:<br />
• build, repair, renovate, and re-purpose existing buildings<br />
• purchase, repair and maintain entire bus fleets<br />
• purchase and maintain new technology<br />
The state has not been able to adequately fund the needs of the Chandler<br />
Unified School District’s 43,000 students. The proposed bond will raise<br />
approximately $196 million in essential funding for capital needs.<br />
This MAIL-IN ONLY ballot will arrive in early October.<br />

How much will the Bond cost me, as a homeowner, based on a<br />
home with a value of $200,000?<br />
The bonds will be issued in series as funds are needed for capital expenditures. After all the bonds have been<br />
issued, the estimated additional cost would be approximately $1 per month or $12 annually. This bond will help<br />
maintain Chandler’s quality schools which will help maintain your property value.<br />

Using the same funding formula the state has used in the past, a district the size of CUSD should receive<br />
approximately $20 million annually in capital funding. However, in the current state budget, CUSD only received<br />
$3 million dollars in capital funding from the state.<br />

THE INTERVIEW<br />
We often will interview<br />
and make available to<br />
clients the video of their<br />
executives explaining<br />
a story, their position,<br />
or building a brand in a<br />
market. Sometimes it is a<br />
reaction to an event where<br />
we will guide and support<br />
them through the entire<br />
process.<br />
THE PRESS<br />
Earned media coverage<br />
supports your message with<br />

FUNCTION & FORM<br />
A strong online presence supports your brand<br />
and creates credibility for your product.<br />
Single platform design isn’t good enough; your<br />
site needs to function well on all devices. With<br />
that also comes SEO and robust analytics. You<br />
can have the best-looking website in the world,<br />
but it doesn’t do its job if no one can find it.<br />
We make that process just a part of the creation.
Social<br />
Media<br />
Social media is just that. Social.<br />
We believe in creating engaging<br />
stories, and using social media<br />
the way you would talk to a<br />
friend. Our team will help you<br />
determine the most effective<br />
outlets for your business, and<br />
then build an audience of fans<br />
