Maot Hittim 5786

As part of experiencing freedom ourselves, we must also ensure that our fellow Jews have the means to celebrate freedom too. Maot Hittim is a special Passover fund, originally intended to provide the poor with matzah.

Your online gift or check made out to the “Rabbi’s Discretionary Fund” (indicate “maot hittim” in the memo) will be distributed by Rabbi Soloveichik right before Pesah.

This year, in addition to collecting Maot Hittim to benefit members of our own kehilla (and beyond), we are collecting funds to support our substantial Maot Hittim effort through Faith for Food. Faith for Food is Shearith Israel and Masbia’s new UWS food pantry on Paved Paradise.  Every Tuesday Masbia supplies our neighbors in need with weekly groceries.  For Pesah, Masbia will be supplying ample Kosher for Passover food packages including chicken and other items that will feed a family for 8 days of Pesah.

Please help us raise $18,000 to fund these Pesah packages ($216 each) for about 80 families so that everyone in need in our community can celebrate Passover with dignity.
