‘Project Menorah’ invites non-Jews to show fellowship with Jewish community

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - Monday marks the fifth night of Hanukkah, coming during a time of heightened anxiety amongst Jewish Americans.

The spike in anti-semitism in the U.S. has led to a grassroots effort to show support for the Jewish community.

Project Menorah encourages non-Jewish people to put a menorah in their window in fellowship with Jewish friends and neighbors.

According to the movement’s website, less than 2% of Americans are Jewish, so this small act can help empower the Jewish community against antisemitic hate.

The group says you don’t have to buy a menorah to take part, you can print out a picture and tape it to a window.

Hanukkah ends on Thursday.
