My Shabbos Family Brochure

Your family and theirs will forever be connected by Shabbos.

INTRODUCING

My Shabbos Family is a subscription program that lets donors sponsor another local family’s Shabbosim every month. Whether you’re able to provide a complete Shabbos or a partial package, your ongoing donation lifts hearts and transforms the holiest day of their week.

Words From Our Family!

RECIPIENT

“For my family and for myself, Shabbos is the hardest time of the week. But Tomchei Shabbos has changed our life. It’s given my family our Shabbos back, and our dignity back. It has given my children more than just the food, but a taste of what Shabbos should be.”

- A Shabbos Family

DONOR

“It’s our own neighbors who are struggling! This realization hit when my son came home from a neighbor's house and described their ‘Shabbos party’. There was nothing in the house. It's really sad. We need to be there for each other.”

VOLUNTEER

“Delivering food to people who need it is absolutely amazing. My Shabbos Family does an AMAZING job making sure that the people who I deliver to are treated with respect!”

- Zevi K.

DONOR

“I’ve never had the nisayon of not being able to afford basic Shabbos necessities. But every Friday, my family hosts an older woman in my neighborhood who does. There are so many others! And through our donation, another family will have everything they need.”

- Moshe S.

“B’H, Lakewood is growing, and the My Shabbos Family program provides the infrastructure to support all families in our neighborhoods. This is the future of tzedakah! Taking achrayus; taking the opportunity, and providing targeted support to families in our own neighborhoods.”

Devoted to endless giving in Lakewood and beyond.

Tomchei Shabbos started giving nearly 4 decades ago. And we haven’t stopped ever since. Today, thousands of families’ basic kosher needs are provided for with ultimate discretion.

ABOUT TOMCHEI SHABBOS MONTHLY

Tomchei Shabbos’s primary relief program, the Monthly Distribution Program provides recipient families with a full month’s supply of basic food staples and essentials.

Smaller than the monthly distribution packages, these are intended for small families or elderly individuals who do not have the storage space for larger parcels.

YOM TOV FOOD RELIEF PROGRAM

Aimed at easing the additional pre-Yom Tov burden before Rosh Hashanah, Sukkos and Pesach, the Yom Tov Food Relief Program provides struggling families with generous amounts of essential foods.
