Paperclips Project !!!

            Over sixty years ago, millions of people were murdered in a cruel undertaking instigated by generations of prejudice and hatred. This event was called the Holocaust. The “Final Solution” as named by Hitler, was the German plan of systematically slaughtering millions of Jews; over 6 million Jews died as a result, and an additional of 5 million people of other ethnic groups. Approximately 1.5 million of these people slaughtered were but mere children.
We students, in Sierra High School’s Mr.Kuzma’s 9th grade Honors World History/Geography class are striving to collect one point five million paper clips in order to honor the many children lost in the Holocaust. To honor 1.5 million children who will never again be able to ride a bike, who will never again speak, children who shall never again be embraced and loved. One paper clip, one person. We ask you to send paper clips to us, in order to contribute your memory of the Holocaust and honor the many people lost. We will continue to keep you informed of our project if you are able to help us in any way.
