Tony Weldon

B'nai B'rith Courage to Care (Vic.)
Chairman
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

couragetocare.org.au

Chairman for 15+ years of this volunteer based travelling exhibtion and educational program that shares the stories of the Righteous and their like through their actions in saving the lives of Holocaust survivors. These experiences are used to challenge participants in the program, mainly students, on their attitudes to prejudice, discrimination and racism, motivating them to become "upstanders" rather than bystanders in the face of circumstances they know to be wrong. Courage to Care programs are offered also in NSW, Queensland and WA.
