Our Why

Moran Alfasi is a third-generation Holocaust Survivor who started this organization. Her grandmother, Leah Greiner, was a Survivor who saved three girls in the Auschwitz Concentration Camp, making her Moran’s very first Holocaust Hero. Below are some of Moran’s own words on the impact her grandmother had on her life and why she started Holocaust Heroes Worldwide.

“My grandma Leah always told me ... ‘first you should be a human being’. She was a woman of faith and generosity. She shared with us the atrocities of what the Nazis did, however she always made a point to tell us about the ones who wouldn’t stand by and watch what happened. The ones who took action, even though it was risky for them, they were the ones who ultimately saved her life. She gave me so much strength which has enabled me to rise up through numerous challenges and obstacles. Above all else, she taught me to love your neighbor as yourself. This is what this organization, Holocaust Heroes Worldwide is all about; remembering what happened, honoring all Survivors in addition to the ones that were lost and more than anything, to act with a sense of love, acceptance and unity each day ... so it will never happen again. The Survivors are the ones who have experienced what hate can do at its worst, so they know how to rise up from the dust and depths of despair. Therefore, their voices are more powerful than any others and can bring people together as a result. We should all empower them to spread their messages of strength, unity and acceptance while there is still time.”
