As a leader of faith and service dedicated to the betterment of education of all children, the Rebbe
continues to inspire generations around the world. April 12 is his birthday. The proclamation was
requested by Rabbi Moshe Dubinsky of the Chabad of S. Lake County.
“This day is set aside to urge us all to learn from the lessons taught by this true spiritual leader,”
said Rabbi Dubinsky. “Proclaiming a Clermont “Education & Sharing Day” is an excellent example
of our community’s dedication to the well-being and education of all our children.”
