Zane Buzby

My hero, Zane Buzby, first became aware to me when I was researching different heroes on the internet. She stood out because she is one of the many people to help holocaust survivors in need. While others treat them physically, she treats the biggest wounds left behind by the Holocaust which is poverty. What attracts me to my hero is that she writes about her own life and she sends money to those Holocaust survivors in need.

Zane Buzby has contributed a lot to the Jewish community who survived the Holocaust. Poverty strikes many, and it strikes hard, but Zane makes sure that people with a terrible past do not have to live a terrible present. The suffering caused by the Holocaust is temporary and painful. The survivors from the Holocaust have suffered a lot, and to suffer from poverty it makes things worse. Zane Buzby makes the suffering come to an end by giving money and letters to the survivors living in poverty. In 2011 she began these series of helpful acts. A favorite quote of her's is "I got so many letters that started with, 'We heard that your country is broke. If you can't send us any more money, we understand. Just please keep writing,' " It shows how she not only helps people financially, but emotionally as well.

Specific steps I will take to be like my PCH will be to pursue what I love to do like she did. She took acting classes, and I will take Criminal Justice classes to pursue my dream, just as she did. She has motivated me to become what I want to become and do what I want to do to help others. I plan to major in Criminal Justice at the University of California, Irvine and receive my Masters in Criminal Justice so I can do what I love, and get paid doing it. My lifetime goal is to become a detective. Zane has inspired me to pursue this dream because she pursued her own dream and made it.
