New York (JTA) -- The direc-
tor of a new- foundation to aid
needy Christians who rescued
Jews during the Holocaust said
recently that many of the
rescuers live impoverished lives
and face persecution for their
wartime activities.
Eva Fogelman, director of the
Foundation to Sustain the
Righteous Christians, said that
the project aims to raise funds
to ease their living conditions
and provide a network of social
support for these neglected
heroes of European Jewry.
Founding chairman Rabbi
Harold Schulweis conceived the
idea after studying the impor-
tance of rescuers in terms of
educating about the Holocaust,
Fogelman said.
"In order for people not to lose
faith in humanity, they must see
that it was possible to maintain
a sense of humanity during the
Holocaust," Fogelman said.
Schulweis has studied the
rescuers since the early 1960's
and Fogelman directs a rescuer
research project at the City
University of New York Grad-
uate Center for Social

Psychology.
Both have met rescuers in
Israel, Canada, the U.S. and
Europe in the course of their
research and have learned first-
hand of their indigence and
abuse both from Jewish and
non-Jewish communities.
Even in Israel, where rescuers
ostracized by their communities
in Europe for helping Jews
relocated, the 31 rescuers now
living there have not always
been hailed for their deeds.
Just recently, Fogelman
noted, the Knesset voted to raise
the scant pensions for rescuers.
But money is not the only dif-
ficulty these Christians face in
the Jewish homeland. Fogelman
said she knows of several cases
where Jewish children in
religious neighborhoods taunted
the rescuers, calling them
"goyim" and in one case
physically attacked an 80-year
old rescuer who converted to
Judaism.
Perhaps less astonishing, the
rescuers often conceal their war-
time activist from their
neighbors in European commun-
ities for fear of this type of
abuse. Still others, who have not
been-able to or chose not to con-
ceal their roles, have been
ridiculed for their "love of Jews"
in Europe.
The first task of the founda-
tion will be locating the rescuers.
Some 4,000 appear on a list at
Yad Vashem in Jerusalem.
Others can be located through
the testimonies of survivors and
the foundation members hope to
enlist the help of survivor
organizations to locate rescuers
and reunite them with the peo-
ple they saved.
The international effort of the
foundation will also seek out
other social support organi-
zations to serve as extended
