Dear Family and Friends,

In September of 2017, upon the advice of a tzaddik living in Bnei Brak, I undertook to financially support a family in Eretz Yisroel as a zchus refuah sheleima for a member of my family.

The family we are collecting for lives in .ירושלים They have 9 young children and the father, a sincere Ben Torah, learns in R’ Yosef Efrati’sכולל  זרעים. He is a trueתלמיד חכם  and a בקי in many areas of תורה. Recently, even with their simple lifestyle, they found themselves going in to debt and taking out loans to get by every month.

We have had the zechus of sending $1000 a month to this family, which fills in what they are lacking financially so they do not fall further into debt and even slowly crawl out of it. The אברך himself sent a letter in which he deeply expressed his appreciation for the money, and his excitement at being able to learn with  ישוב הדעתandמנוחת הנפש . See below.

Please join me in partnering in this tremendous zechus of both Tzedakah and beingמחזיק תורה . Any amount would be appreciated.

Tax deductible donations can be made out to:
    B’nei Yaakov
and mailed to:
    1456 East 15th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11230.

I can be reached at 718.314.0938 if you have any questions.

B’Virchas Hatzlacha V’Kol Tuv,

    Yechiel Weissman

Thanks letter sent by the recipient of the tzedakah (translated from Hebrew)

“From my youth, I had a strong desire to sit in the tent of torah and to toil in torah all my life… and baruch Hashem we were zoche to special siyata dishmaya throughout the years… and even though our parnasa was not always enough, we made do with what we had and put our trust in הקב''ה that he would always help us. However, recently, our debts began to grow and we didn’t see a way to make things work. And then, Hashem sent you, min hashamayim, to send us support each month, and this allowed us to fill in what was lacking each month and even slowly repay the previous debts which we had! This has obviously given us special  מנחת הנפש to toil in torah with ישוב הדעת.”

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN,

I want to recommend the very worthy Tzdakah that my nephew Reb Yechiel Weissman is involved with.

Each month he supports a young Torah scholar from Yerushalayim to assist him in having sufficient 
funds for his family.

I personally know this Torah scholar. He has extremely fine character traits, and utilizes all his 
time for his diligent Torah study. He has a large family and they live quite modestly. He puts in a 
lot of effort to support his family, nevertheless each month he has greater financial expenses than 
he can cover.

My nephew has taken upon himself this extra special project to raise the necessary money to help 
him with his ongoing expenses and to pay off his previous debts, little by little.

My nephew is doing for a spiritual merit for wife who needs a great

recovery.

Everyone who helps out financially will be fulfilling a great mitzvah

of charity and supporting Torah.

With Torah blessings

Zelig Pliskin
