A Program Rooted in Kindness
The Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah Sponsorship program came about through the generosity and thoughtfulness of a single individual.
When Rabbi L. sponsored Gemara study in his father’s memory, he included an extra donation to be used in the merit of any Jewish soul with nobody else to do this kindness for him.
Less than a week later, someone contacted us regarding the upcoming first yahrtzeit of his cousin who had tragically taken his own life; because of the circumstances involved, many of the conventional activities usually performed in memory of a loved one were not done. This relative was only capable of sponsoring a small portion of Torah study but badly wanted to do more. We knew that we had found a perfect recipient for Rabbi L.’s donation. Immediately, the money was earmarked for Mishnah study in the merit of the young man.
When we contacted Rabbi L. to inform him of the turn of events, he was quiet and then shared, “That really was the perfect recipient. You see, that young man was my next-door neighbor.”
Your sponsorship will cover the cost for someone who wishes to sponsor learning l’iluy nishmas a loved one but is unable to do so.
You can facilitate the ultimate eternal kindness.
