Ten-year-old Sarah used her wit and willful influence to flee from danger when the Nazis rounded up Jews in Split.Before the war was over, Sarah would board the Henry Gibbins with 1,000 refugees to Fort Ontario in Oswego, NY, where she was put into a camp as a guest of President Roosevelt with the promise to return to her home country at the end of the war.Sarah Meller speaks to hundreds of students and inspires them to not hate, but to instead show love to everyone.
