In Their Own Words

How We’ve Made a Difference:

“My father has dementia and has been very sad. He keeps the card from his Shavuos package on his wall, and when he feels low, he reads it, and it gives him strength.”

Yossi D.

“I have worked with Bikur Cholim for many years now, mainly working alongside them to ensure that care packages are sufficient to meet the needs of learning-disabled adults within the Charedi community. I have seen at first hand the dedication and commitment they show towards their clients and their families, and am regularly impressed by Bikur Cholim's willingness to 'go the extra mile.'”

“I was short of challos and didn't know what to do. Suddenly I received a call offering fresh challos, and everything I needed for Shabbos came together in minutes.”

Mindy L.

“After watching the training, I sang to my father, and suddenly he started tapping along and then singing with us. We hadn't seen that response in a long time.”

Shlomo G.

“After a very difficult day with doctors visiting, we received such warm words and delicious cakes. It meant so much to us.”
