| By the Grace of G-d 8 Nissan, 5785 - April 6, 2025 Before I get to the "appeal" part of this email, I am going to ask you to join me in praying for peace in the Holy Land and throughout the world. I recommend starting with Chapter 20 in Psalms. If you wish to recite additional chapters, you can find the entire book of Psalms here. Thank you for your prayers, support, and good wishes. Please keep reading to learn about the Chabad.org Passover appeal and how your donation can help millions of people around the world during this time. As you prepare the matzah, wine, maror, and Haggadahs to celebrate the Seder's timeless and joyous reenactment of our Exodus from Egypt! If I may be so bold — We can really, really use your help at Chabad.org now! I say this with great urgency: The questions are pouring in to our rabbis at an incredible rate. Jews from every part of the globe – and many others, too – are crying for Jewish wisdom, help with celebrating the holiday, and heart-rending cries for dealing with life's most difficult challenges. We won't turn anyone away. Our team personally answers the questions of people from all walks of life, and all over the world. In between scrubbing their stoves, mopping their floors, and doing their Passover shopping, these selfless men and women are summoned by their emails: "My elderly mother is housebound—how can she still experience a Seder?" "I'm traveling in South America during Passover—can you connect me with a local community?" "I have a disability that makes it hard to clean for Passover. Can you suggest any alternatives?" "I just moved to a new city. Where can I find a Seder?" We also get questions like: "Can I kosher my oven for Passover? How?" "I'm in mourning (aveilut). Am I still obligated to hold a full Seder?" "This year, Shabbat is erev Pesach. When do we eat our Shabbat meal? When do we have to stop eating Challah?" "I can't read Hebrew fluently. Can I still host or participate in the Seder?" "What did the Rebbe say about a Fifth Son?" "Can I fulfill my matzah obligation with gluten-free matzah?" "Can you help me sell my Chametz?" With your support, we can answer each one. Can you help? This has been a difficult year for so many people, asking deep and vitally important questions. Your donation today will make sure our 'Ask the Rabbi' service can operate and expand, providing personalized and compassionate responses to every searching soul. Here's where to give: Chabad.org/PassoverCampaign Our rabbis and counselors painstakingly respond to each individual, helping to ensure that he or she feels connected to and comfortable with his or her Jewish heritage. Leading up to Passover, millions of people make their way to Chabad.org seeking to connect to three millennia of timeless, priceless wisdom and guidance, available in eight languages! And Throughout the year, many more people of all levels of knowledge and observance – all "Four Sons" – come to Chabad.org for meaning, guidance, and answers to their most important challenges and questions for life. Can you please help them? Your kindness will ensure that our "Ask the Rabbi" counselors will continue to respond personally to the heartfelt questions that people ask at all hours of the day and night. The world needs this critical lifeline, now and all year-round. Someone you know may need it, too. Maybe you need it. (If you do, please don't hesitate to ask. We'll answer your question!) Your gift will ensure that Chabad.org's team can keep up with the skyrocketing demand. Here's how powerful your donation will be: You'll help people in crisis. You'll help many people learn that their lives have deep purpose and meaning. You'll help people who feel like they live in spiritual isolation discover that they have a rich heritage to tap into. They are people of all ages. From all walks of life. From nearly every country. They seek connection... to their own souls, to community, to the Torah's timeless insight. The Rebbe, of righteous memory, taught that we dare not rest until every Jewish child (and adult) – even the Fifth Son who doesn't know there is a seder! – has Jewish knowledge and education! When you connect people to the kind and patient advice of our rabbis or counselors, you are assuring them that they are loved and cared for. That they are the apple of G-d's eye. That they have a unique role that only they can play for the entire world. Your donation will help people transform their life challenges into a story of spiritual exodus and spiritual triumph!

Executive Director P.S. Passover is fast approaching! For help with all your holiday preparations, please enjoy our special Passover site. P.P.S. This Wednesday—the 11th day of the Jewish month of Nissan and the Rebbe's birth date—will be observed worldwide with reflection and resolutions to strengthen humanity's commitment to education, especially its morals and ethics. In fact, the President of the United States, both houses of Congress, governors of all 50 states, and local leaders everywhere are expected to issue proclamations recognizing the day and urging all of us to embrace its lesson: to teach and uphold moral, ethical, and core values for our children. As you prepare to sit down to your Seder with family and friends, it will surely be fulfilling to know that you've helped others get the answers they so pressingly seek! Thank you for your kindness—together, we're making a world of difference. Please note that this request is an appeal to all who are able to help. You are always welcome to enjoy our online resources, website, and subscriptions, regardless of whether you contribute. * * * If you would prefer not to receive any further emails from our Passover appeal, you can easily let us know by clicking here. |
