We’ve done it! Thanks to the generosity of our community, Bais Rivkah has successfully completed Campaign 470, raising $47,000 in honor of the legacy of Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka. During the Bais Rivkah Campus Chomesh groundbreaking ceremony in 5748, the Rebbe personally donated $470 in the Rebbetzin’s memory. Bais Rivkah offered everyone the opportunity to partner with the Rebbe by donating in increments of 470, the numerical value of חי’ה מושקא.
We would like to thank every one of our generous donors who came through to support the Rebbe’s mosad and enable us to continue to provide the gold standard in chinuch to our students. Aside from the opportunity to support Bais Rivkah, all donors were entered into a raffle for silver replicas of the Rebbe’s becher and the Rebbetzin’s candlesticks. Congratulations to Joseph Wilshanski and Nini Grossbaum on winning.
Bais Rivkah students really came through during this campaign. Our Campus Chomesh students brought in their full pushkahs from home and received Sweet Expressions gift cards as a reward. A special thank you goes out to the Bais Rivkah high school students who gave up their own time after school hours to make phone calls.
“It is my hope, that all of Anash will do so, being that the institution that the [Frierdiker Rebbe] founded is dear to him, and he (the Rebbe) will evoke mercy for them and their families, may they live and be well, that they should be blessed with all that they need materially and spiritually.”
– Translated from the Rebbe’s handwritten note on a Bais Rivkah donation ledger from 5710.
