PARSIPPANY — On Sunday, August 5, the Township of Parsippany-Troy Hills will commemorate the life of Raoul Wallenberg.
Mr. Wallenberg, was a Swedish Diplomat stationed in Hungary during World War II. Appalled at the human rights crisis that surrounded him, Mr. Wallenberg took action and proceeded to issue passports to the Jewish people who were being targeted under the Nazi regime. Due to Mr. Wallenberg’s heroism, he was able to save 100,000 Jewish people from persecution. Please join us as a community to remember a true Hero and honor his commitment of “Courage and Compassion” to others.
This event will take place in Smith Field at the corner of Baldwin Road and Route 46 starting at 1:00 p.m.
