                Proclamation 10916 of April 9, 2025

                
Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A., 2025

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                This Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A, we draw 
                inspiration from the life, legacy, and blessed memory 
                of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the Lubavitcher 
                Rebbe and leader of the Chabad-Lubavitch community, 
                whose Hebrew birthday corresponds to this day. He was a 
                transformational teacher and a spiritual force who--
                from the ashes of the Holocaust--established one of the 
                most vibrant, joyous, and significant religious 
                movements of the modern era. In the wake of 
                unimaginable destruction, he embarked on a global 
                campaign of spiritual outreach to bring the light of 
                faith and Yiddishkeit to countless members of the 
                Jewish community. All Americans can learn from his 
                tireless devotion to teaching, good deeds, and charity.

                From 770 Eastern Parkway in Crown Heights, the modest 
                home that continues to serve as Chabad headquarters, he 
                reinvigorated the Chabad-Lubavitch movement and led a 
                religious revival--one that would touch all four 
                corners of the globe. Today, Chabad and its shluchim, 
                emissaries dedicated to spreading Jewish awareness, 
                education, and kindness in communities around the 
                world, still serve as beacons of the Rebbe's teachings 
                and boundless love for all humanity. Their community 
                centers stand as living testaments to his message, 
                legacy, and unwavering commitment to outreach and 
                support. They are spread across the United States and 
                around the world, within big cities, small towns, and 
                on college campuses, more than doubling in number since 
                his death.

                On the first anniversary of the brutal October 7, 2023, 
                attacks, I visited the Ohel of Rabbi Schneerson and 
                drew spiritual guidance and replenishment from his 
                voice and message. There, praying with the family 
                members of American hostage Edan Alexander and 
                Auschwitz survivor Jerry Wartski, I was personally 
                reminded of the horrors of antisemitism--whether 
                perpetuated by the Nazis or Hamas. My commitment to 
                combating it is unwavering. My Administration has made 
                great strides in bringing home all hostages captured 
                during the murderous and criminal Hamas attacks of 
                October 7, 2023, and to securing peace and stability 
                for the Jewish people in their homeland and around the 
                world.

                The First Lady and I encourage all Americans to reflect 
                upon the Rebbe's teachings. His inestimable dedication 
                and unwavering example have become woven into the very 
                fabric of our Nation and its character. His memory 
                remains a blessing to the world.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me by the laws of the United States, do 
                hereby proclaim April 9, 2025, as ``Education and 
                Sharing Day, U.S.A.'' I call upon all government 
                officials, educators, volunteers, and all the people of 
                the United States to observe this day with appropriate 
                programs, ceremonies, and activities.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this

                thousand twenty-five, and of the Independence of the 
                United States of America the two hundred and forty-
                ninth.
