Receiving the Torah – As one man with one heart

Shavuot

Prior to Shavuot, the Birkat Hashem volunteers toil to bring the holiday joy and light into each and every home.

Since holiday joy means meat and wine, every low-income family on the Birkat Hashem list receives a generous amount of fine meat, neatly packaged cut up chicken, and vouchers to buy the rest of the holiday necessities.

That is how we accept the Torah with love – by making sure others can also celebrate the holiday.
