Holocaust survivor Eva Schloss to speak

YOUNGSTOWN

Eva Schloss, stepsister of Anne Frank and Auschwitz concentration camp survivor, will share her story of Holocaust survival at Park Vista of Youngstown at 1 p.m. Sunday in the Park Vista South Gathering Room.

Schloss and her mother, both barely living, were rescued from the camp in 1945 when the Russian army liberated it. But her father and brother did not survive.

She has devoted her life to educating people all over the world about the importance of tolerance and respect.

In 1999, Schloss joined the U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan in signing the Anne Frank Peace Declaration, along with a niece of Raul Wallenberg, a Schindler-like hero who rescued thousands of Jews in Budapest.

The cost is $10 per person with all proceeds benefiting the B’nai B’rith Youth Organization.

Limited seating is available. For reservations call Park Vista at 330-746-2944, ext. 1555.
