The story · English

For many years, a man known for his extraordinary kindness opened his home and table to the needy, broken-hearted, and troubled, offering them a warm meal, a listening ear, and genuine support. This man, deeply devoted to helping others, turned his house into a refuge for those without any other address. However, over time, his debts accumulated, and recently his financial situation has reached a complete collapse.

Rabbi Tzvi Breurman, the chief rabbinical judge (Raavad) of Beitar Illit, revealed the dire circumstances in a rare and urgent public appeal. He described the man as someone who dedicated his life to others and now faces overwhelming debts incurred from supporting the destitute who gathered at his table. Rabbi Breurman emphasized the severity of the crisis, stating that the man lacks even the most basic necessities and that the situation is close to a life-threatening emergency.

The rabbi stressed that his testimony is based on firsthand knowledge, not hearsay, and called on the public to exert extraordinary effort to assist this selfless individual. He promised blessings of health, success, and prosperity to all who contribute. The appeal requests donations of 360 shekels to help the man recover from his financial ruin and continue his vital work. The community is urged to respond promptly to repay the kindness of a man who has spent his life serving others.
