"LIFE IN A JAR: THE IRENA SENDLER PROJECT"

Join us for a special evening with Jack Mayer, MD     Award winning author of "Life in a Jar"

APRIL 29, 2015
 
A Vermont Humanities Council Program hosted by Everyone's Child, with grateful recognition for the additional support of the Friends of the Joslin Memorial Library and the Mad River Valley Interfaith Council. 
 



"The Irena Sendler Project is a  tribute to the powerful benevolence and curiosity of our young."
-Jack Mayer
In his bestselling book, Jack Mayer inspires people of all ages to understand that one person can make a difference in history, and that every small act of goodness repairs the world.  Mayer’s book corresponds directly with the work of Everyone’s Child, a humanitarian non-profit organization based in the Mad River Valley dedicated to improving the lives of children in Kenya, particularly those whose lives are surrounded by invisible walls of poverty, poor health and lack of education.  Mayer will be connecting this wonderful story of the heroic woman who rescued 2,500 children from the Warsaw ghetto in the 1940's and the Kansas teenagers who "rescued the rescuer" with the importance of rescuing children in need today.

Proceeds from the evening will go to Everyone's Child to help fund the completion of two classrooms at the Lord Ranjuera Primary School in Kampi Ya Moto, Kenya.
