3. Fight Anti-Semitism

   
   

   VCJC was sent a large number of Blue Square pins from Stand Up To Jewish Hate, an organization under The Foundation to Combat Antisemitism, started by Robert K. Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots. Its purpose is to make the world aware of and help wipe out anti-Semitism. Wearing the pin will show that you support stopping the spread of anti-Semitism. You can get yours in the office
