The College of Communication, Fine Arts and Media in conjunction with the Institute for Holocaust Education, B’nai B’rith Monsky Lodge, and the UNO Schwalb Center for Israel and Jewish Studies, present a screening of the documentary film “A Life Well Lived: An Account of David Kaufmann.”

The movie tells the remarkable true story of David Kauffmann, a central Nebraska businessman, community leader, and philanthropist, whose actions impacted countless lives. David Kauffmann emigrated from Germany and settled in Grand Island in 1903. His contributions to his adopted hometown of Grand Island and other communities he conducted business in, including Kearney and North Platte, were extensive. Kaufmann’s most significant and least known act of service was his quiet sponsorship of Jewish families fleeing the Nazi regime.
