ADOPT-A-WEDDING
WEDDINGS WITHOUT JOY
Help a poor family make a beautiful wedding
While most families are able to find a way to manage that expense, poor families in Israel often just can’t bear it. And an occasion that should be one of great happiness and excitement becomes marred by disappointment and anxiety over mounting bills.
But our Gitty Perkowski Adopt-a-Wedding Program changes that.
The program invites Jewish couples from around the world to share the joy of their happy occasion by sponsoring the wedding of a poor couple in Israel on the same date as their own. Not getting married right now? You can still bring joy to couples in need by sponsoring their wedding. Dates can be chosen from our Wedding Calendar, and sponsorships can be made in the merit of a refuah shleima, in honor of an anniversary or yartzheit, or for a myriad of other events and purposes. Giving tzedaka to this program is the perfect way to do the incredible mitzvah of hachnosas kallah.
Your very generous donation to our Adopt-A-Wedding program will make a real difference in the lives of so many. You will be replacing their worry and concern over wedding expenses, with happiness, excitement, and great relief. Imagine their joy as they reach their chuppah,
able to fully celebrate one of the biggest moments of their lives.
There can be no better wedding gift than that.
Please donate today.

Back to School Campaign
Shopping for school supplies is an experience kids look forward to every year. But if there's no money in the home to pay for food, there's no money to buy school supplies. We can give kids in need the opportunity to buy new supplies too, helping them start their school year off with dignity-just like everyone else.

Bread and Milk
