True friendship shows us the power of kindness. At MSHEF, we believe compassion belongs in every classroom—because when students learn to care, they grow into adults who stand up against hate. Let’s spread friendship. #InternationalFriendshipDay #MSHEFoundation

This #IndependenceDay, we reflect on the meaning of freedom through the lens of Jewish-American history & Holocaust survival. Freedom hasn’t always been guaranteed. Today, we honor those who fought for it—and those who remind us what it truly means. #MSHEFoundation #NeverForget

Pride is more than celebration—it’s the demand to be seen. LGBTQ+ people were targeted by the Nazis. Today, hate still persists. On #PrideDay, we honor those who refused silence & affirm the power of education to fight bigotry—past & present. #NeverAgainIsNow #TeachTruth
