For more than fifty years, Eshel-Hachnosas Orchim, the veteran and main organization, has represented you in taking care of all the needs of the Tishrei guests, providing each guest with full, nourishing meals – both in the morning and in the evening.
Throughout the month of Tishrei, thousands of guests come to be near the Rebbe MH”M, and Eshel works tirelessly to care for them in every way. In the three large dining halls, thousands of meals are distributed daily to all guests, from young bochurim to adults. These are full, satisfying meals, served both in the morning and evening, including a variety of salads and side dishes. Three enormous kitchens operate around the clock to ensure that every guest receives their portion.
In addition, Eshel provides beds, mattresses, and sleeping equipment for those who have found a place to stay but do not have their own bedding, ensuring that every guest has a comfortable place to rest.
Spiritually, Eshel provides organized learning sessions at 770, along with shiurim, farbrengens, and workshops for all the guests throughout the month of Tishrei.
This year, the sharp rise in food prices has placed a heavy financial burden on Eshel, especially with the large number of guests coming to be with the Rebbe at Beis Chayenu during this time.

Let’s stop giving free everything to these guests. How about if you send your child over seas or across the country, you pay to make sure they have meals?
