Seder Classes Help Participants Become Leaders

Jewish travelers in Nepal help prepare food for the Chabad-Lubavitch run Passover Seder in Kathmandu.

Rabbi Shimon and Michal Pelman, directors of Chabad-Lubavitch of the Dominican Republic, have held community Passover Seders for years. Jewish residents, business travelers and tourists alike have participated in the festive meals and their surrounding traditions, but this year, they’re trying something new. In addition to the community celebrations, the couple is helping people take it into their own homes.

Is a Mosser's Matzos Kosher? Well, technically they probably are, but would you want to use Matzos at your Sader that were made by a person who attempted to have six Jews imprisoned through an elaborate and vicious Messira?

Without help, many Jewish families in New York could not afford to properly observe Passover. With that in mind, about 15,000 homes will be issued pre-paid debit cards — worth $50 to $300 depending on family size — to defray the cost of special holiday preparations that center around avoiding leavened foods.

Debit Cards Will Help Thousands of Jewish Families
