Nigri Jewish Online School, sister school to Nigri Shluchim Online School caters to families worldwide who don't have access to Jewish education or prefer online learning.
Before Chanukah, the school launched their annual #SpreadTheLight campaign, mailing each student a package of Menorahs, one to keep and use and others to share with Jewish families who didn’t have a Menorah.
The students were thrilled to receive the package and were empowered to spread the light of Chanukah to their surroundings. Over the eight days, the students gave out hundreds of kits to Jews around the world who otherwise wouldn’t have had the opportunity to celebrate Chanukah.
“Eliana gave away both of the Menorahs she was sent from Jewish Online School,” wrote Mrs. Rebekka Rødner from Oslo, Norway. “One she gave to a student who had moved to Oslo, the other to the Fox family who moved to Oslo a few months ago and just before Chanukah realized they had left their Menora’s behind!”
The outpour of feedback from the parents shows how meaningful this experience was for the children to lead and spread light in their own unique way.
