Education and Sharing Day, all began in 1978 by the U.S. Congress and President Jimmy Carter, commemorates the birthday of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, also known as the Rebbe. Observed annually, this day fluctuates between March 21 and April 21, corresponding to the Rebbe’s birthday on the Hebrew calendar, 11 Nissan.
