‘Be the mensch our world needs’
The Sydney Jewish Museum has launched the 'Be a Mensch' campaign that encourages people to practice small acts of kindness on an everyday basis.
EIGHT ambassadors have been chosen by the Sydney Jewish Museum to spread the word about empathy and kindness as part of its Be a Mensch campaign, launched last week to coincide with World Human Rights Day.
The ambassadors include Holocaust survivor Olga Horak, NSW Senior Australian of the Year finalist and Holocaust survivor Eddie Jaku, former High Court Justice Michael Kirby and African-Australian Advocacy Centre chairperson Noel Zihabamwe.
The campaign will be conducted inside the museum to visitors and students, and through its online and social media platforms.
Meanwhile, the museum is seeking expressions of interest for its next volunteer guide training course, which will run on Mondays from February 13 to September 14, 2020.
Registrations are due Friday, December 27. For more information, call (02) 9360 7999 or email volunteer@sjm.com.au.
