A hero to me is a person that helps you when you are in trouble and if you need help in a bad situation. The person I am researching is Recha Sternbuch.During the holocaust Recha was located in Swisserland. My person belived that everyone should be treated the same. So Recha and her husband issac tried to tell the germans to put a symbol on jewish passports so they would know who was jewish and who was not, but the germans refused.So Recha and Issac made a group to save the jewish from the holocaust. Recha's roll in the holocaust was to bring jewish people to swisserland. She would bring jewish people to swisserland and hide them. the town's population of jews increased because Recha and Issac were bringing many jews into the country. When the jews got to swisserland they had to hide in basements and attics. She helped jewish people by bringing them to her country illegaly. Recha brought jewish people to her country because the germans weren't there to take them. The Swiss gave the jews food and drinks.
