Detroit Chabad Community Gives Generously to Odessa Orphanage

SEPTEMBER 13TH 2022

Rabbi Shneur Silberberg and Ethan Gross, CEO of Globe Midwest Adjusters International established the Sarah and Morris Tugman Bais Chabad Torah Center High Holiday Mitzvah Project to raise money for the Odessa Orphanage.  In the first days of the war, fearing for the safety of the more than 100 children, Rabbi Avraham Wolff and his wife, Chaya, evacuated the entire orphanage to Berlin.  It was a long and arduous journey, but with the support of Chabad Shluchim along the way, and funding from JRNU, the German Government and generous donors, the orphanage has relocated just outside Berlin.  The monthly expenses to feed the children and provide for their education and other needs are significant, this campaign is a great help! 

Just a few days after launching the campaign, the wonderful members of BCTC are well on their way to reaching their goal of $18,000. The children of the orphanage along with members of their community who have relocated with them, and the JRNU organization, are grateful to Rabbi Silberberg and Mr. Gross and the entire BCTC community. 

The children expressed their gratitude in their own words in the video here.

BCTC and JRNU welcome any and all donations to support this most worthy cause!

Together we Save Lives and Restore Hope!
