Yesterday [Sunday] a dinner was held in honor of the Tzivos Hashem Organizations 25th anniversary, and the ceremony of the completion of a Sefer Torah written for the Shul in the museum and was donated by Dr. Esther Benenson “The mother of Tzivos Hashem”. The event was attended by board members and employees of the museum and family, as well as local politicians and our brass of the NYPD’s 71st Precinct.
The event opened up with the completion of the writing of the Sefer Torah, and the dancing with the torah out in the freezing cold around a few blocks. Then the crowd moved back into the museum for a beautiful and delicious buffet dinner with a variety of different food to choose from.
And for the last part of the event, there was a round of special presentations of their work here in the United States and abroad, specifically the USSR, from schools to shelters and orphanages. One of the entertainers was Bruce Adler a world famous singer and entertainer who brought back memories of his childhood and the radio station WEVD the only radio station in Yiddish! Another of the presentations was from the Friendship Circle where 2 special children made a brief speech thanking the organizers and counselors for their work and effort they put into the program and how much it means to them.
An extensive gallery is now online with 160 beautiful pictures of the event! Enjoy!
