Help Us Ensure Families Celebrate PASSOVER Substantially with Their Loved Ones

Help Us Get Families, the Elderly, & the Marginalized through this unprecedented Crisis

We've already been contacted by more clients than we ever have in the past.

Clients who must make Passover themselves and cannot rely on an invitation from another this year.

Families with children forced to stay home from school and parents who must stay home from work, unable to compensate for the added expenses.

Please don't let us turn any qualifying family away due to under-funding.

Finances are already tight for our families, but Passover in conjunction with COVID-19 adjustments will result in a situation for most that will be more than they can possibly bear.

There isn't a single one of us who isn't worried about how Passover will take place and it will no doubt be difficult for us all.

But what of the families who already had a hard time making ends meet before all of this started?

What of the seniors and those living alone who rely upon the kind invitation of others to join their Seder and holiday meals in order to save money each year?

Self-isolation is forcing so many to stay home, alone, and make Passover themselves. This will cause even more financial strain.

There are so many wonderful initiatives that exist in our community to assist families for Passover and which have been implemented to assist with the unique emergencies of COVID-19.

But if you know United Chesed then you know that we only ask for what our families need. And as we approach Passover, our list of clients requiring assistance continues to grow.

Only United Chesed is equipped to assist those in emergency, financial crisis get back on their feet. We're fast, effective, and compassionate.
Please, show your support and leave the rest to us.
