Every year Jews around the world gather and celebrate Hanukkah – we light candles, eat latkes, spin dreidels... and we commemorate that a small jar of oil lasted eight days when it should only have lasted one. Seven extra days may not seem like much but it was exactly what the Maccabees needed, exactly when they needed it. It was a SMALL MIRACLE.
What is a SMALL MIRACLE? It’s a bag of groceries when our cupboards are bare, medical supplies when we’re injured or ill, a new bed when our old one is broken, cheerfully-given advice when we don’t know what to do. It’s a helping hand that is there just long enough for us to gather our strength, catch our breath, and get back on our feet.

We at United Chesed understand the power of the SMALL MIRACLE.
Our donors, staff and volunteers have been involved in SMALL MIRACLES for over fifteen years.
Unexpected tragedies – from medical emergencies to job losses – bring with them extra expenses that our clients simply cannot afford; it’s like asking them to light the Menorah for eight days with only enough oil for one. It can’t be done. Not without a SMALL MIRACLE.

“United Chesed moved so quickly. Their caring, compassion and soothing approach made all the difference in the world to me. Having not been able to work, having no income, and twins to support ... well, no one else comes close to helping like United Chesed, and I’ve tried everywhere ... From medical supplies to monetary vouchers, and more, there are simply no words to describe how United Chesed is so valued and cherished in my life.”
