20 Lakewood Families Got the Call. Dozens More Are Still Waiting. [COMMUNICATED] As Lakewood prepares for Yom Tov, dozens of local Kollel families are facing a very different kind of Tishrei — wondering how they will cover even the basic expenses for their families. For Keren Zichron Tzipora (KZT), the calls have been coming nonstop. The organization exists with one mission: to financially support and uplift Lakewood’s devoted Yungeleit and their families, with a simple message: “We are honored to support your Torah.” For some families, the clothing gift cards provided by KZT will mean the only new clothing their children receive all year. Baruch Hashem, 20 families were assisted this past week alone — but dozens more are still waiting. With Erev Yom Kippur quickly approaching, KZT is turning to the Lakewood community to help close the gap. $500 can sponsor a Kollel family’s Yom Tov, but every amount can make a meaningful difference. As the Yom HaDin approaches, it is an opportunity to bring tremendous relief to a local family — and enter the new year with the zechus of supporting Torah right here at home. Who will tip the scales this Tishrei? READ MORE👉👉 --- 📲 Join the Matzav.com WhatsApp Family! 🗞️
