Why is The Butterfly Project relevant?



"The Butterfly Project is important far beyond the realm of raising awareness about the children of Terezin. It reminds us of an event many people long to forget ever occurred. The Butterfly Project is a story about strength, hope, and what it takes to keep going, despite all the odds in the world being against you. It brings a sense of beauty to a reality more harsh then humankind should have ever endured. Being an active member of the youth movement Habonim Dror, a movement that helped to form the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, I find it particularly important to share the story of these kids. It is a beautiful play that reminds people, both young and old, just how strong humankind is even in the darkest of hours."
