Bea Israel
""When a story is told, it is not forgotten. It becomes something else, a memory of who we were; the hope of what we can become." "
My Bat Mitzvah project is in memory of my Bat Mitzvah twin, Chaya Zirl Gabelman, a young girl who was murdered in the Holocaust. For my project, I will be interviewing a Holocaust survivor, Bea Israel. In her honor, I am collecting donations for an important organization, Voices of Hope.
Voices of Hope promotes a culture of courage to stand up against hatred through Holocaust and genocide education and remembrance.
Your donation will go a long way to helping me meet my goal to help others never forget the lessons learned from the Holocaust and other genocides.
For every donation, I will send you a Holocaust Remembrance Bracelet designed by me. Each bracelet is yellow and black, the colors of the Star of David that Jews were forced to wear. There are 6 opposite colored beads that represent the 6 million Jews that perished in the Holocaust. Lastly, a beautiful Star of David charm signifies the hope that we will be able to educate as many people as possible to never repeat this atrocity and other genocides.
