You can help reach the goal

In response to a letter requesting the Rebbe’s brucha for launching this fund-raising effort, we inserted the letter in a random page of a random volume of the Rebbe’s Igros and received the following letter in which the Rebbe discusssed raising money for a mitzvah (Moas Chitim): Igros Kodesh, Volume 4, pp. 590-591

“The fund of Moas Chitim is one of the things that the Rebbe, my father-in-law) took an interest in. Therefore it continues until this day. Needless to say this emphasizes the greatness of this mitzva.”

“Through fulfilling kol dichfin in gashmius and ruchnius, we hasten the Lishono Habaah beeretz Yisroel, the Geulah. I ask you to please give from me, a thanks and a Brocho to those who are involved and dealing with, and getting others to have the zechus in joining in the important mitzva of this fund. Wtih hope they continue and add more strength in doing this holy work and continue going higher and higher.

I bentch each of those who are doing this, with all they need.”

Let's be there for those in need

We are all aware of those who live in poverty, who struggle to meet their basic requirements of food, shelter, clothing, children's education and so much more. Boruch Hashem there are many organizations and individuals who are dedicated to meeting these needs: food pantries, programs of cash assistance, thrift stores and gemachs, tuition programs, etc. Yet despite all the great efforts and kindnesses there are still many whose basic needs are not met.

Needs that are private: addiction prograns, suicide prevention programs, emergency medical issues, legal costs that can't be publicized, psychiatric problems.

Those who are too embarrassed to wait on food pantry lines, those who can't carry packages home, those who can't leave their young children alone.

Emergencies: eviction, utility cut-offs, car repossessions, arrests.

Those who can't let others know they live on tzedakah and must keep up appearances.

I have been a supporter of Keren Yisroel for a number of years. They have provided urgently needed support for a number of people. Under the able direction of Mrs. Nechama Berenstein, this organization has not only provided many with needed funds when they had no other place to turn, but always dealt with everyone with unparalleled sensitivity and respect. Please join me in supporting this remarkable organization.

I know literally dozens of people who have been helped by Keren Yisroel and have shared their stories with me. Several themes seem to always come up. First, precisely when they were desperate and losing hope, that's when help arrived. Secondly, contrary to what they experienced from others, they were treated with complete respect. They were not made to feel lower because they asked for or needed help. On the contrary somehow the care and love that was shown to them made them feel valued and good about themselves. That is the hallmark of Keren Yisroel. That is the stamp that Nechama Berenstein, the founder of the Keren, has put on all of its activities. Your partnership will enable these activities to continue and expand.

I have been working actively in Keren Yisroel for years, being of assistance in whichever ways I can. This organization is like none other! It helps families in crisis. It would not take care of a bit of a problem, rather the whole person or family is attended to. Our goal is to try to help whomever is in need and we try not to turn anyone away. I have watched this Keren save one life after another., I have watched this Keren be non-judgmental and be completely dedicated to help anyone, everywhere, whether in the way of a listening ear, financially,or with practical advice and referrals. The way of giving is very unusual, a kind of giving that one can only read about in story books. .Always done with a smile, good cheer, discreetly and quietly. Those in charge of the organization have demonstrated and taught an unparalleled approach, unique among whatever chesed activities or organizations I have witnessed. The Keren helps discreetly and without fanfare. I have never witnessed chesed of this kind done with such a full heart and tremendous concern for another. I encourage all those that can to help in the way we try to treat those in need – with a full heart and a full hand.

Over the years I have watched as the activities of the Keren Yisroel helped many, often in dramatic ways. In doing so there was an unusual ability to comfort the recipient such that they did not feel abandoned and lost. While there are many chesed organizations that help many and do important work, the need for the Keren Yisroel is urgent. It is irreplaceable and I urge you to support it generously and with priority.
