1915-1917

After returning to Kraków in the summer of 1915, Sarah Schenirer organizes a public meeting of Orthodox women and founds the Orthodox Girls’ Union. She stops working as a dressmaker and devotes her time to lecturing and assembling an Orthodox lending library. But she is dissatisfied with the fact that the adolescents she manages to reach are uninterested in strict observance and she decides to work with younger girls.
