Without good relationships there is no good life
Karla Moravcová was born on 23 June 1926 in Prague - Břevnov. During the war an unexploded aerial bomb fell in their garden. She apprenticed as a dressmaker and later attended a commerce academy. She was forced to labour at a warehouse near Kbely Airport, where she experienced several air raids and bombings. She met her future husband there, and he brought her to the community of the Christian thinker and activist Přemysl Pitter. Under his supervision she participated as a child-carer in the post-war Castles Project: she took care of small Jewish children who had survived the concentration camps. Her experience influenced her decision to devote herself to professional childcare. She completed a one-year foster course and worked as a teacher all her life. Karla Moravcová died on November 30th, 2022.
