Who impressed you most Why (qualities / achievements / influence) Give a talk in honor of Nicholas Winton Nicholas Winton, the "British Schindler," was a man of immense compassion and exceptional courage. His life-changing actions in 1939 saved 669 children from the Nazis. Winton's journey of selflessness and heroism began in December 1938 in Prague. Seeing the tough situations faced by those escaping the Nazis, he was driven to help, starting a rescue mission for the children. In the following months, he worked tirelessly to ensure their safety and found them British homes. This mission, ended successfully in August 1939, with 669 children saved. Winton's service extended beyond this operation. During World War II, he joined Britain's Royal Air Force and later worked for international charities. His acts of bravery and kindness remained largely unknown until 1988. After that, he was globally honored, receiving a knighthood in 2003, and the Order of the White Lion in 2014. Winton's life is a powerful reminder that a single act of kindness and courage can make a big difference in the world and his legacy continues to inspire.
