Domestic violence awareness is essential for building safer communities and supporting survivors. It helps break the stigma surrounding abuse, encourages open conversations, and promotes early intervention. Awareness campaigns educate the public about recognizing signs of abuse—physical, emotional, financial, or psychological—and provide resources for help and recovery.
“Every survivor’s story is a light that guides others out of darkness.”

Yom Kippur is the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. It is observed on the 10th day of the Hebrew month of Tishrei, following Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year).
The central theme of Yom Kippur is atonement and repentance. It is a day dedicated to self-reflection, prayer, and seeking forgiveness from both God and other people.

"Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it’s something you create today."
