Menashe Ozrapour, Holocaust survivor

Menashe Ozrapour was a Holocaust survivor whose life story stands as a testament to human resilience, endurance, and the unyielding spirit to survive in the face of unimaginable horrors. Born into a Jewish family in Europe during a time of rising anti-Semitism, Menashe was a young boy when the Nazi regime rose to power and began its systematic persecution of Jews.

Deported along with his family to a concentration camp, Menashe experienced firsthand the cruelty and inhumanity of the Holocaust. He witnessed the loss of loved ones, the brutality of forced labor, and the constant threat of death. Despite these hardships, he survived—through a combination of determination, faith, and the will to see a world beyond the barbed wire fences.
