[Aneinu] Kidney Needed
A message from Congregation Ohr Torah
March 7, 2013
Dear Friends,
I am writing about a very urgent matter.
Harvey Paretzky, a dear friend and member of our community, is suffering from kidney failure and desperately needs a kidney transplant as soon as possible.
He cannot survive long-term without a transplant. Saving a person’s life is a great mitzvah. By donating a kidney, you can literally save Harvey’s life.
Harvey is working with Renewal, a Jewish non-profit organization, which facilitates and supports all aspects of the kidney transplants process. If you have type O blood, and meet certain other specific criteria, you will be a potential donor.
For additional information, contact Renewal at:
R612@renewal.org
(718) 431-9831, ext. 311 (patient reference #R612)
This letter was sent with Harvey’s approval.
Rabbi Yaakov Luban
