REMEMBER THIS
LADY?
Irena Sendler
Died: May 12, 2008
(aged 98)
Warsaw, Poland
I didn’t remember her
either.
During WWII, Irena, got
permission to work in the
Warsaw ghetto, as a plumbing/sewer
specialist. She had
an ulterior motive. Irena
smuggled Jewish infants out
in the bottom of the tool box
she carried. She also carried
a burlap sack in the back of
her truck, for larger kids.

Irena kept a dog in the back
that she trained to bark when
the Nazi soldiers let her in
and out of the ghetto. The
soldiers, of course, wanted
nothing to do with the dog
and the barking covered the
kids/infants noises. During
her time of doing this, she
managed to smuggle out and
save 2,500 kids/infants.
Ultimately, she was caught,
however, and the Nazi’s
broke both of her legs and
arms and beat her severely.
Irena kept a record of the
names of all the kids she had
smuggled out, in a glass jar
that she buried under a tree
in her back yard. After the
war, she tried to locate any
parents that may have survived
and tried to reunite the
family. Most had been
gassed. Those kids she
helped got placed into foster
family homes or adopted.
In 2007 Irena was up for
the Nobel peace prize.
She was not selected.
Al Gore won, for a slide
show on global warming.
Irena Sendler
Thank you for giving so
much and saving so
many.
