Baruch Hashem the NCFJE has confirmed our East Flatbush location for this upcoming Tuesday from 3PM-7PM at 305 Remsen Avenue – East Flatbush Shul.
Minhagim have always taken a special place by the Rebbe. If it was a minhag chabad, or a minhag yisroel, the Rebbe would speak very strongly about it. Since 1975, the NCFJE, under the leadership of Rabbi JJ Hecht, who himself was personally involved in starting this project, has worked to strengthen the minhag of Kaporos.
This minhag is still being strengthened today through the NCFJE and made easier by the third generation of the Hecht family, Rabbi Hanoch Hecht, who works tirelessly to continue this minhag.
The proceeds of this project go to help the NCFJE continue in their work and the chickens themselves are given to Machon L’Yahadus, Yeshiva Hadar HaTorah and other families that need help for yom tov.
We would like to thank Rabbi Dovid Fisher and Mr. Morris Gad for opening their hearts and their wallets to help keep this minhag alive in our community.
Please visit NCFJE.org/Kaporos for purchasing and more information!
