For the second time in recent months AreivimUSA is paying out to a Crown Heights family that has lost a parent.
“It is with great pain that we notify you of the untimely Petirah of a member from Crown Heights leaving behind two orphans R”L,” a notice from Areivim said. “Therefore, Areivim USA members are requested to donate in the month of October”
The notice also identified Rabbi Levi Garelik of Beis Shmuel as the Crown Heights Rov that will oversee the funds.
This is the second collection on behalf of a crown heights family in less then six months. In May a Crown Heights family with three children was payed out.
As reported, Areivim members voted to raise the payout amount to 150 thousand dollars per orphan.
The Crown Heights Beis Din has released a letter of support for the Areivim program. A free translation of the letter reads “We are aware of the Areivim program that supports orphans and widows in an honorable way. “Yasher Koach” to the organizers and all those that participate.

THis should not be a replacement for life insurance.
I agree. Regular term life insurance is very easy to get and cheap. Every married man should have. At least, everyone with a child. Take care of your family if something happens.
HRA can pay back rent, but this is for renters only. The 2 requirements are future ability to pay, ie a job or a 3rd party support.
The CHJCC can help, as well as the Elected Officials of their district.
Wishing this family only bosoros tovos!
