Testimonial

"I have grown so much from this, it has been one of the best experiences of my life. The experience was overwhelming in a good way; it made me go deep and brought back the memories of my family. It opened new doors and avenues, and I have not stopped doing the work.” – Faye Leicht, 2G

"My mother and extended family came from small towns in and around Frankfurt, Germany, during the late 1930s... I was asked to speak with German students at the local public school regarding my family’s experience and how it affected me. I had a big story to tell, with letters, official documents, pictures, and more.  How was I to organize this into a presentation that the students could understand and learn from?

​

It is thanks to Rachel Cerrotti, who, over the course of weeks and months, has helped me organize a comprehensive and highly effective presentation... Many thanks to Rachel Cerrotti and inSIGHT Through Education for providing this amazing opportunity.” – Lynette Polatin, 2G
