Marking 50 Years to the Righteous Among the Nations Program - Donate to Yad Vashem: "due to Lorenzo that I am alive today; and not so much for his material aid, as for his having constantly reminded me by his presence… that there still existed a just world outside our own, something and someone still pure and whole… for which it was worth surviving"
Primo Levi describes his rescuer, Lorenzo Perrone (If This Is A Man)
The Righteous Among the Nations provided the briefest glimmers of light and hope in the darkness of the Shoah. Since its establishing the Righteous Among the Nations project 50 years ago, Yad Vashem has conveyed the gratitude of the State of Israel and the Jewish people to non-Jews who risked their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust."
