                Proclamation 7997 of April 5, 2006

                
Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A., 2006

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                A quality education is the cornerstone of a hopeful 
                tomorrow for all our children. Education and Sharing 
                Day highlights our strong support for our young people 
                as they pursue lives of learning, prepare to become 
                responsible leaders, and work to reach their full 
                potential.

                On Education and Sharing Day, we remember the efforts 
                of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the Lubavitcher 
                Rebbe, who promoted the importance of education and 
                ethical teachings to every student's future. He sought 
                to improve lives and communities through a vast network 
                of education and outreach centers and social service 
                programs around the world. We continue to be inspired 
                by the Rebbe's good works and all those who dedicate 
                their time, talents, and energy to helping our next 
                generation grow into caring, responsible adults. 
                Through devotion to faith, family, education, and 
                community, we can continue building a better and more 
                compassionate society.

                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 the laws of the 
                United States, do hereby proclaim April 9, 2006, as 
                Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A. I call upon 
                government officials, educators, volunteers, and all 
                the people of the United States to reach out to young 
                people and work to create a better, brighter, and more 
                hopeful future for all.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                fifth day of April, in the year of our Lord two 
                thousand six, and of the Independence of the United 
                States of America the two hundred and thirtieth.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B
