At Ahavas Chesed, no Patient is Left Alone

Would you ever willingly leave someone you love in the hospital all alone? In the high-pressure environment of busy hospital floors, closely looking after a patient can be the difference between diligent care and neglect - and often even worse R”L.

The bond of a Yiddish family demands that when one of us is bedridden, we all circle the wagons to ensure their safety and well-being. This is especially so for parents of hospitalized young children who are often forced to sacrifice everything to care for their vulnerable youngster. While work and home life might suffer, they find it unfathomable to leave their precious child alone. Day and night are spent in hospital corridors as the ordeal consumes their lives.

But sometimes they can’t anymore. Whether it’s the other children at home who demand attention or life’s circumstances getting in the way, they need a reprieve. This is the void Ahavas Chesed fills with tireless devotion. A growing list of volunteers step in and step up for the overwhelmed families - going the extra mile in their pursuit of chesed.

Ahavas Chesed operates on a shoestring budget with no payroll and no overhead. But arranging for transportation at the busiest hours, as well as the inevitable small expenses that present themselves throughout the year leave the group with no choice but to turn to the you for help. The crucial Extra Mile campaign will go the extra mile and cover the budget of this critical mission.

Please join us in this undertaking today and share in the zechus of bikur cholim and gemilas chesed.

We’ll cover the shifts. Help us cover the budget.
