International Holocaust Remembrance Day with Maud Dahme

The AHEC invites you to join us for our 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day Commemoration.

We are honored to welcome Holocaust Survivor Maud Dahme, a hidden child who moved to the United States after the war and became an accomplished Holocaust educator. Maud was only four years old when the Germans invaded her homeland, the Netherlands. In 1942, to save them from deportation, Maud’s parents hid her and her sister with a member of the Dutch underground, then with a Christian family. From 1942 to 1944, Maud and her sister pretended to be the nieces of this family. When it became too unsafe for them to hide with this family, they hid with several other courageous families until the end of the war. After the war ended, Maud and her sister were reunited with their parents. In 1950, the family immigrated to the United States. There, Maud became a passionate Holocaust educator, even writing a book about her experiences. Today, she tells her story to encourage people to treat each other with kindness and compassion and to fight tirelessly for a better world.
