Join us for our final installment of Taking Action Together as we hear from Stanlee Stahl, the Executive Vice President of The Jewish Foundation for the Righteous and a renowned Holocaust educator. In her presentation, “The Mirror of Goodness,” Stanlee will address the rescue of Jews by non-Jews during the Holocaust. She will provide some general history on the Holocaust and will then address rescue within the historiography of the Holocaust. Who were the rescuers, what did they do, and why did they risk their lives and often the lives of their families to save Jews, many who were total strangers? After the presentation, you will have the chance to ask Stanlee questions during our Q&A.

About Our Speaker:

Stanlee Stahl is the Executive Vice President of The Jewish Foundation for the Righteous.

Before joining the Foundation, Stanlee established Extra Helping, New Jersey’s first prepared food transfer program. Extra Helping picked up leftover food from corporate dining halls, caterers, and universities and delivered it to programs, which fed New Jersey’s hungry. As part of Extra Helping, she opened a kosher component, the only one in the United States at that time.

Stanlee spent 20 years working for the United States Department of Health and Human Services, working at the National Institutes of Health, and working in the Office of the Secretary of the Department. She has also lived in Israel, where she worked for Magen David Adom, Israel’s Red Cross Society.

When she is not at work, Stanlee reads, knits, cooks, and bakes. Until a bike accident, she did triathlons. Stanlee lives in West Orange, New Jersey. She graduated from Miami University in Ohio and has graduate degrees from George Washington University in Washington, D.C. and New York University in New York City. Stanlee celebrated her 32nd anniversary with The Jewish Foundation for the Righteous in September 2024.
