[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
