Following the alleged syringe attacks on two Jewish men in Manhattan, @Michelleahdoot Michelle Ahdoot, Director of Programming and Strategy at @EndJewHatred, explains why the community came together in NYC. Her message goes beyond one incident. Jewish safety is a civil rights issue, and standing against antisemitism means standing alongside all communities facing hate and intimidation. This is about accountability. It's about protecting our rights. And it's about making sure that fear and violence never become the norm. Jewish communities deserve to feel safe wherever they are. Share this message and stand with those speaking out. @AaronHermansays  #JoinIMPACTNow #EndJewHatred #JewishSafety #FightAntisemitism #StandTogether #CivilRights #StopHate

🚨 WE SHOWED UP. WE SPOKE OUT. WE DEMANDED ACCOUNTABILITY. This morning, IMPACT stood alongside @EndJewHatred and community partners outside Manhattan Criminal Court following the horrific alleged syringe attacks targeting Jewish New Yorkers. 📺 @NBC4Communities NBC 4 New York covered the rally and spoke with @AaronHermansays, CEO & Co-Founder of IMPACT. “When you attack a people—the Jewish community—it hurts the young people, it hurts the old people, because being Jewish is an identity, it’s a religion...” — Aaron Herman According to prosecutors, two Jewish men were allegedly stabbed with a syringe in separate attacks, and the suspect later allegedly asked another man whether he was Jewish before apologizing and walking away after he said he was Muslim. Antisemitism cannot become normalized. Jewish New Yorkers should never have to hide who they are or fear being targeted because of their identity. @JoinImpactNow is proud to stand with #EndJewHatred and others demanding accountability and making sure Jewish voices are heard. We don’t just post about antisemitism. We organize. We show up. We take action. 📲 Join the IMPACT movement: joinimpact.app #JoinIMPACTNow #EndJewHatred #StopAntisemitism #JewishPride #JewishNewYork #NYC #RapidResponse #StandUpSpeakOut #NeverAgain

WE SHOWED UP. WE STOOD TOGETHER. WE DEMANDED JUSTICE. This morning, @JoinImpactNow was proud to stand alongside @EndJewHatred outside Manhattan Criminal Court as Anna G. Mochalova appeared for a hearing following the alleged antisemitic attack on two Jewish men in Manhattan’s Diamond District. Our message was clear: Jewish hatred cannot be normalized. Hate crimes must have consequences. Standing up against antisemitism requires more than words. It requires showing up, speaking out, and demanding accountability. That’s what IMPACT is about: organizing, empowering, and mobilizing our community and our allies to turn outrage into meaningful action—online and on the ground. We will continue to show up. We will continue to speak out. And we will continue to stand with those fighting Jewish hatred. Jewish blood is not cheap. Silence is not an option. @AaronHermansays  #EndJewHatred #JoinIMPACTNow #StopAntisemitism #JewishPride #StandAgainstHate #TakeAction #NYC #JewishCommunity

🧥 One coat can make a difference. One person can change a life. @AaronHermansays, CEO and Co-Founder of @JoinImpactNow, sat down with real estate leader and philanthropist @danneiditch after he helped distribute more than 1,000 coats to New York City children in need—with thousands more planned as winter approaches. For Daniel, this mission is personal. “I was one of those kids. I grew up in the Bronx and I didn't have much. I remember walking around in a T-shirt sometimes to school during the winter and freezing.” Today, he’s using his success to make sure other children don’t have to experience what he did. His message: You don’t need to give away 1,000 coats to make an IMPACT. Start with one. “If I can stand up, you can stand up… one person at a time, we can get together and change the world.” 💙 Want to help keep a child warm this winter? DM us if you’re interested in getting involved in this project. Together, we can make an IMPACT—one coat, one child, one act of kindness at a time. #joinimpactnow #DanielNeiditch #NYC #GiveBack #Community #Philanthropy #MakeAnImpact #NewYorkCity #SocialImpact #Kindness

Your children are watching what you stand for. 💙 Our Hindu ally Pankaj shares a powerful reminder for parents: the values we hope to pass down aren’t just taught through words, but through the example we set. When we stand shoulder to shoulder against hate, we help the next generation understand what’s right, what’s wrong, and why our shared humanity matters. Because the norms we set today shape the world our children inherit tomorrow. ✨ 💬 What’s one value you hope to pass on to the next generation? @AaronHermansays  #JoinIMPACTNow #Allyship #RaiseTheNextGeneration #StandAgainstHate #SharedHumanity #FightAntisemitism

🚨 IMPACT ACTION ALERT: Halloween costumes have limits. Halloween is about creativity and having fun — but selling Hitler-themed costumes crosses a line. The Pawfect House is facing criticism over products depicting Nazi imagery, which trivializes a history marked by the persecution and murder of millions of people, including six million Jews. This isn’t just about a costume. It’s about recognizing when “dress-up” turns real human suffering into a joke. 📢 Speak up. Call out @pawfecthouse_co and take a stand against Nazi-themed products. Let them know why this matters. @AaronHermansays  #JoinIMPACTNow #ImpactAlert #NeverForget #HolocaustRemembrance #FightAntisemitism #StopHate

A love letter to Judaism and a conversation about representation. Adam Brody and Nobody Wants This @nwtnetflix creator, Erin Foster, have different views on Israel, but the conversation also raises a bigger question: why does authentic Jewish representation on screen matter? Rabbi Steve Leder shares his perspective on helping bring Jewish life to the screen with authenticity and care. Jewish stories deserve depth, nuance, and the opportunity to be understood. @AaronHermansays  #JoinIMPACTNow #NobodyWantsThis #JewishRepresentation #JewishJoy #JewishIdentity #MediaRepresentation #JewishCommunity

IMPACT Co-Founder and President Daniel Rosen @and_minds33445 spoke with @fox5ny following the Meera Mangaroo incident, addressing the responsibility educators have when speaking publicly about issues of equality, inclusion, and justice.
