Members of our leadership team were grateful to attend the Appeal of Conscience Awards Dinner on 9/23, honoring Raj Subramaniam, President and CEO of FedEx, and celebrating the Foundation’s mission of religious freedom, human rights, and interfaith dialogue. It was a privilege to join distinguished leaders from across faiths, business, and public service for this special evening.
We are inspired by Rabbi Arthur Schneier, the Foundation’s founder, Senior Rabbi of Park East Synagogue, and Holocaust survivor, and his call to strive beyond tolerance toward true acceptance. Thank you to Rabbi Schneier and his daughter, Karen Schneier Dresbach, for including us alongside other young NYC faith leaders.
We were especially honored to meet His Eminence Cardinal Pietro Parolin, Vatican Secretary of State, who delivered a message on behalf of Pope Leo XIV, and His Excellency Archbishop Christophe-Zakhia El-Kassis, the Holy See’s Permanent Observer to the UN.
