Shlomit is a young woman I know from the Carlebach Shul. She came to New York from Israel and it was her dream to marry and raise a family. After many years of searching, her dream was realized and she and her husband recently began a family. They have been blessed with three beautiful children all of whom are under the age of five. Like every parent, she was looking forward to the years of watching her children grow through each beautiful stage of their lives.
I am personally reaching out to you for help. ANY amount of money you can donate will be deeply appreciated, bringing hope to this family and saving these children from losing their mother. A tax deductible contribution to the Carlebach Shul Chesed Fund for this purpose can be made via paypal at this site (which is dedicated solely for this appeal): Stand Up for Life Alternatively, you can mail a check payable to the “Carlebach Shul” (Note: write in the memo “Shlomit Chesed Fund”) and mail to: The Carlebach Shul, Attn: Shlomit Chesed Fund, 305 West 79th Street.
