On September 16, a ceremony took place to unveil a plaque honoring Polish families from the Stoczek municipality who risked their lives to help Jews threatened with extermination during the German occupation from 1939 to 1945. The event was organized by Józef Maliński, president of the Association of Veterans of the Republic of Poland and Former Political Prisoners in Stoczek. It began with a Holy Mass in memory of the Victims of World War II and those who risked their lives to save others. After the service, participants proceeded to a memorial stone, where the plaque was blessed. The plaque honors the following families: Ewa and Tomasz Kaczmarczyk and their children, Anna and Jan Maliński and their children, Leokadia Radzyminska and her son Mieczysław, along with Helena and Aleksander Styś and their children. These families provided life-saving assistance to Jews, despite the great danger it posed to themselves and their loved ones.
During the ceremony, speeches were given, and flowers were laid. Dr. Edward Kopówka, the Director of the Treblinka Museum, attended the event along with museum staff.
