                Proclamation 7888 of April 19, 2005

                
Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A., 2005

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                As we enjoy the great freedoms of our country, we are 
                mindful of our obligation to pass on to our children 
                the values that sustain our liberty and our democracy. 
                On Education and Sharing Day, we reaffirm our 
                commitment to teach young people the lessons they need 
                to preserve and strengthen our Nation, and to reach as 
                far as their vision and character can take them.

                Education and Sharing Day honors the memory of Rabbi 
                Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, who 
                established education and outreach centers that offer 
                social services and humanitarian aid around the world. 
                Commemorating his life and legacy teaches the next 
                generation that a single life of conscience and purpose 
                can touch and lift up many lives. By helping to heal a 
                broken heart, surrounding a friend with love, feeding 
                the hungry, or providing shelter for the homeless, we 
                can change America for the better, one heart, one soul, 
                and one conscience at a time.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United 
                States, do hereby proclaim April 20, 2005, as Education 
                and Sharing Day, U.S.A. I call upon all our citizens to 
                dedicate their time and talents to help our rising 
                generation grow into caring and responsible adults.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                nineteenth day of April, in the year of our Lord two 
                thousand five, and of the Independence of the United 
                States of America the two hundred and twenty-ninth.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B
