3. A well deserved tribute
Eduardo Propper de Callejon was a remarkable hero. He risked his life and was eventually demoted from his diplomatic post, in order to save those persecuted by the Nazis.
Our Foundation, an NGO devoted to preserve and divulge the feats of the saviors of the Holocaust, was proud to pay tribute to Propper de Callejon a few years ago (2006), in a moving ceremony that took place at the Cervantes Institute in New York, with the attendance of Felipe, the savior's son.
The saviors of the Holocaust represent the other side of the coin. Amidst the darkest era in the history of mankind, these remarkable women and men stood up, confronted evil and made a difference, saving not only innocent lives, but the dignity of the human race.
It is our duty to keep their legacy alive and instill their values to the younger generations.
