PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. - eTradeWire -- inSIGHT Through Education today announced the launch of the Chesed Social Media Contest, inviting all middle and high school students in Palm Beach County public schools to use their creativity and online influence to stand against antisemitism, bullying, discrimination, or any form of hate.

Inspired by profound acts of kindness (Chesed) that occurred even amidst the immense cruelty of the Holocaust, the contest challenges students to create original social media content that promotes kindness, acceptance, and respect.

"The digital space needs an infusion of grace, benevolence, empathy, and compassion," said Roneet Edrich, Executive Director of inSIGHT Through Education. "This contest empowers the next generation to be the architects of a kinder, more respectful online world. By looking back at lessons of courage during the Holocaust, students can learn how to stand up to hate today and use their online influence to amplify the attributes of grace, benevolence, empathy, and compassion."
