"To me, hard times are like hide-and-seek - where is the solution, where is the hope? We can never give up looking for these things because they are just waiting to be found." Gidon Lev arrived at the Nazi concentration camp of Theresienstadt in the former Czechoslovakia as prisoner number 885. He was six years old. Liberated when he was just ten years old, Gidon is one of only a handful of children who survived the camp.
He lost 26 members of his family in the Holocaust, including his father, grandfather, and great-grandparents. After decades of silence, Gidon first told his story to a group of German high school students. Now, Gidon has spoken to celebrities and diplomats all over the world and taken social media by storm - all with his signature candor, charm, and wisdom. Let's Make Things Better is the calling card of an indomitable spirit-sharing timeless truths, from reconciling with the past, standing up to hate, living for the moment, bringing people together, and finding hope for the future in an increasingly uncertain world.
Ultimately, Gidon's lesson for all of us is that we have opportunities, large and small, every day to make things better now and to leave the world a better place when we are gone. This astonishingly simple power is available to all of us, and Gidon Lev's life is a lesson about how to do it, even in the face of extraordinary adversity.
