+Capt Kirk Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I discovered this memorial and need a category under Things/Memorial. I would be willing to be responsible as a category owner. Children's Holocaust Memorial & Paper Clip Project Have you ever seen 11,000,000 paperclips in one location? In 1998 eighth grade students at Whitwell Middle School began an after-school study of the Holocaust. As the study progressed, the sheer number of Jews who were exterminated by the Nazis overwhelmed the students. Six million was a number that the students could not remotely grasp. Students began bringing in paper clips. To date approximately 30 million paperclips have been sent to Whitwell Middle School. A memorial containing 11 million paper clips is housed in an authentic German transport car. For further information on this Waypoint checkout, http://www.marionschools.org/holocaust/index.htm .
