Vandalized N.Y. Campus Menorah Rededicated Amid Broad Support

Thanks to grassroots efforts by students at Colgate University in Upstate New York to combat antisemitism on their campus, a new giant menorah was dedicated on Dec. 13, just five days after the original Chanukah menorah at the local Chabad-Lubavitch center was vandalized.

In the past, Chabad of Odessa, Ukraine, hosted extravagant outdoor menorah-lighting ceremonies. This year it wouldn’t be safe to host the event outdoors or even to light the giant menorah in public. Instead, they are hoping to display the menorah on top of the iconic Potemkin Stairs as a symbol of light over darkness. Inside of the city’s Grand Choral Synagogue, Chabad will be hosting nightly Menorah lightings for the community. (File photo)

In Public Squares and Private Homes, Chanukah to Fill the World With Light

In a world beset by war, chocolate gelt and parachuting dreidels will be dropped from helicopters and menorah-carrying drones. Displaying courage faith and pride in the face of bigotry and antisemitism, more than 15,000 large menorahs will light up public spaces around the globe.
