This is why we do what we do.
No matter the distance, no one should feel alone for the Jewish holidays.
This message says it all:
“I will say this was my best Pesach in years, thanks to you and Chabad.
I usually celebrate alone, or sometimes with a friendly non-Jewish neighbour. There are no local Jewish people here that I know of, and getting around isn’t simple, especially at night. As someone who is visually impaired living in a remote area, I’ve learned to make peace with celebrating on my own, and I truly love my life here in the woods.
But this year was different.
The matzah. The grape juice. The pickles. The gefilte fish, everything. Usually I just have the vegetables I grow myself. But this year was truly special.
And the Passover guide, it was incredible. Such an illuminating addition to the Haggadah.
What a beautiful gift for the holiday. I appreciate everything.”
