Crown Heights residents joined a Kumzitz Melava Malka with singer Eli Levin on Motzei Shabbos to benefit the Keren Almanos Y’Yesomim – Crown Heights Division.
The event was held at the home of R’ Beryl Junik and featured speakers Rabbi Abraham Laufer, Founder of the Keren, and Rabbi Aaron Dovid Gancz – Mashgiach of Yeshiva Tomchei Temimim Morristown.
The event raised over $75,000 for the organization which assists local families.
The Keren Almanos V’Yesomim Crown Heights Division is dedicated to supporting local families, providing comprehensive assistance to 150 households with over 350 children. This initiative grants them unlimited accounts at Butcher and Fish Stores, allowing for the free purchase of vital food items like fish, meat, and poultry.
This program addresses essential nutritional needs while also maintaining the families’ dignity, treating them as ordinary customers and is a testament to the community’s strong commitment to caring for its members, emphasizing the importance of support and unity within Crown Heights.
Campaign Committee: Rabbi Shloimy Greenwald, Zalmy Cohen, Chaim Daniel Piekarski, Beryl Junik, Moshe Pinson
Looks so nice!
