of our students for their dedication and empathy
in bringing this exhibit to life,” said Daphna
Feldman, Hebrew Department coordinator
at Farber. “Their commitment to honoring
the stories of others exemplifies the values of
compassion and solidarity that we strive to instill
in our school community.”
As Yom HaAtzmaut approached, the exhibit
stood as a powerful reminder of the strength that
lies within the community and the importance of
standing together in the face of adversity. Visitors
were able to reflect on the stories shared within
the exhibit and to draw inspiration from the
resilience of the communities represented.
In a world often marked by division and
discord, the exhibit serves as an icon of hope,
reminding us all of the power of unity and
compassion in overcoming even the greatest
of challenges. As the nation celebrates its
independence, let us also celebrate the
indomitable spirit of those who call the south of
Israel home.
