Bronisława Kurpi was a Polish Catholic nurse renowned for her heroic actions during the Holocaust. She served as a nanny and caregiver who hid and raised young Abraham (Abe) Foxman as a Christian during the Holocaust to protect him from Nazi persecution. In 1941, as the Holocaust intensified in occupied Poland and Lithuania, Foxman's parents entrusted their 16-month-old son to Kurpi's care in Vilnius, Lithuania. To shield him from discovery, Kurpi baptized him into the Catholic faith and raised him as a Christian boy, concealing his Jewish identity. She treated him with profound love and devotion, ensuring his survival through the war years amid the dangers of the Nazi occupation. Kurpi cared for young Foxman until the liberation in 1945, when his parents returned to reclaim him. The bond formed during those formative years left a lasting impact on Foxman, who later became the national director of the Anti-Defamation League. He has publicly honored Kurpi as a 'heroic Polish Catholic woman' whose memory he carries in his heart, crediting her with his survival. Her actions highlight the complex dynamics of rescue and identity concealment in wartime Poland. Post-war, Kurpi continued her life in Poland, but little is documented about her later years. She passed away in 1967, and her legacy endures through Foxman's testimonials and historical accounts of Holocaust rescuers.
