About this listen

Eight women. Thousands of children saved. Unforgettable stories of courage.

They were teachers, nurses, students—ordinary women who made extraordinary choices. In the darkest days of World War II, they risked everything to save the most vulnerable: the children.

Saving the Children of the Holocaust tells their incredible stories.

With quiet courage, fierce determination and an unshakeable sense of what was right, these remarkable women made choices that changed–and saved–lives.

You’ll meet Irena Sendler, who smuggled children out of the Warsaw ghetto; Mary Elmes, who hid children in her car to drive them out of French camps; Truus Wijsmuller, who helped launch the Kindertransport–and other brave women who defied the Nazi regime to save innocent lives.

Their stories will touch your heart, lift your spirits, and remind you that even in the darkest times, kindness and courage endure.

"She gave me my life. That's the reason I'm here."–Phillip de Groot
