Irena Sendlerova: the story of the feat

Irena Sendlerova (Polish Irena Sendlerowabefore marriage – Krzyzanowska, Krzyżanowska) is an outstanding Polish social worker, nurse and righteous man of the nations. She was born on February 15, 1910 in Warsaw and died on May 12, 2008 at the age of 98. During World War II, Irena Sendlerova saved the lives of more than 2,500 Jewish children, making her a symbol of humanity and courage.

Biography and activities

Sendlerova worked for the Warsaw social service, which allowed her to gain access to the ghetto under the pretext of a sanitary inspection. She actively collaborated with the organization “Zhegota” – the Council for Aid to Jews, created in December 1942. As head of the children's department, she organized the rescue of Jewish children who were smuggled out of the ghetto and placed in Polish families, Catholic monasteries and orphanages.

Quote from Sendlerova:
“Every child saved with my participation is a justification for my existence on Earth, and not a right to glory.”

How were the children saved?

Irena and her team smuggled children out in various ways:

• In boxes, baskets, suitcases and bags.
• Through sewer pipes and secret passages.
• Under the guise of the dead, wrapped in a shroud.

Sendler wrote down the names and details of the rescued children on paper, which she kept in a glass jar buried in the garden. After the war, these records helped identify the children, although most of their parents were killed.

Arrest and release

In 1943, Sendlerova was arrested by the Gestapo, tortured and sentenced to death. However, thanks to a bribe given by members of Žegota, she was saved. After her release, she continued her underground activities until the end of the war.

Life after the war
