Harry Saffer

Twelve-year-old Harry Saffer arrived at the Home in September 1924 from Montgomery, Alabama.

Although he remained in the Home for only one year, many years later he cheerfully participated in the Alumni Project, recalling that his assigned number — for purposes of his storage locker and clothing identification labels — was #259. He also submitted the photos shown on this page.
