Twelve communities in four different countries will be given their own Torah scrolls this Shabbat, sent by the Beis Yisroel Torah Gemach in Brooklyn, N.Y.

12 Communities Worldwide to Get Torahs in Time for Shavuos

Shavuot marks the “giving of the Torah” at Sinai more than 3,300 years ago. That will have even greater meaning this year for 12 communities in four different countries that will be given their very own Torah scrolls for use by the Brooklyn, N.Y.-based Beis Yisroel Torah Gemach.
