The story of Irena Sandler – Part 1

Irena Sandler, the heroine who is known to have saved 2500 children from Nazi terror.

With the arrival of autumn 1999, four teenagers from a Kansas high school between 14 and 16 calls Elizabeth Cambers, Megan Stewart, Sabrina Coons and Jessica Shelton went barruntando the idea of ??presenting a project for National History Day, a nationwide
academic competition that annually participate in more than half a million U.S. students.

For inspiration, they consulted a copy of the magazine U.S. News & World Report 1994 and, coincidentally, found an article that glossed the figure of Irena Sendler , a Polish woman from which he never had heard before and during World War II had made ??a
touching story that the passage of time and lack of interest in each other had been condemned to oblivion.

Moved by the story, spent the next few weeks to research the life and miracles of the unknown heroine, and with the material collected, prepared a play they titled Life in a Jar (something like life in a jar ) that earned them numerous awards, interviews
on television and newspapers but, above all, served to expose the titanic work he did during the Nazi occupation of Poland to free a young Catholic girl from certain death to thousands of Jewish children.
