A Historic Evening with Eva Schloss, Stepsister of Anne Frank

Survivors of the Holocaust will all soon be gone... but will their stories of tolerance, diversity, and triumph live on? On November 5th, 2019 Chabad at University of Washington hosted a historic event: An opportunity for the UW community to hear the story of noted speaker and author, Eva Schloss, a Holocaust survivor and stepsister of Anne Frank. Eva was joined on stage by University of Washington President, Ana Mari Cauce, who lead the conversation. A young 90-year-old woman, Eva Schloss traveled here from London to give the crowd a real face-to-face encounter with someone who represents courage in the face of all odds, fortitude, positivity and so many more values that are priceless in today's society. The event took place and sold out at the HUB Ballroom with 1410 seats. This event marked a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for students, staff, faculty and community members to hear firsthand from a Holocaust survivor. 11/05/19
