Top Rabbis Endorse Fertility Aid Campaign Ahead of Yom Kippur
Leading rabbis from various Orthodox Jewish streams have visited the offices of the "Bnei Ovlam" organization to express support for its "Ayah" fundraising campaign, which aims to assist thousands of couples struggling with infertility. The campaign, timed before the High Holy Day of Yom Kippur, seeks to raise funds for the organization's extensive work.
"Bnei Ovlam," founded by Rabbi Shlomo Buchner, provides professional and emotional support, including medical guidance and financial assistance, to couples undergoing fertility treatments. The organization's leaders met with prominent rabbinic figures, including Rabbi Matzliah Haim Hirsch, Rabbi Mordechai Shternbuch, and Rabbi Yitzchak Zilberstein, among others, to discuss the challenges faced by these couples.
During these meetings, the rabbis emphasized the importance of establishing Jewish homes and blessed the campaign's donors, assuring them that their support would bring them blessings and success. The "Ayah" campaign is crucial for ensuring the continuity of "Bnei Ovlam's" services throughout the year, which include connecting couples with top doctors, offering personal guidance, and subsidizing expensive treatments that would otherwise be out of reach.
The organization highlights that thousands of couples are currently supported by "Bnei Ovlam" on their difficult journey, with the campaign's name, "Ayah," reflecting their search for the right path, doctor, treatment, and ultimately, the longed-for news of a child. "Bnei Ovlam" is urging the public to join the campaign, emphasizing the merit of helping to bring life into the world and build future generations, especially in the lead-up to Yom Kippur, the Day of Judgment.
