Secure the Kesselman Family of Malmo Sweden

Good for the Malmo Jews!

ABOUT THE TEAM

Dear Friend!

This project is very close to our hearts. Rabbi Shneur and Raizel and Mrs Kesselman are genuine good freinds of ours. It has been quite some time that we have been concerned for thier safety, and are thankful that this will now change - with YOUR help.

We have taken upon ourselves to raise $4500 and are confident we will reach this goal. Please donate generously as there is a matching grant - dollar for dollar.

Thank you very much and may you be blessed with all that is good in all areas of life.

The Cause

 

SECURE THE COURAGEOUS EUROPEAN FAMILY
INSPIRING VIBRANT JEWISH LIFE IN MALMÖ SWEDEN

• Malmo Sweden is a hotbed of militant anti-Semitism and Atlantic Magazine described local Rabbi Shneur Kesselman as possibly the "most persecuted Jew in Europe."  
• The Kesselmans have endured over 200 anti-Semitic incidents since their arrival 11 years ago.
• President Obama twice sent his Special Envoy on Anti-Semitism, to Malmo Sweden and they left extremely concerned for the physical well being of the Kesselman family.

And yet….

• The Kesselmans have been positively impacting lives of the over 1500 local Jews with their courageous leadership, unbelievable programming and warm welcome to every Jew living in this city and suburbs.  
• Paulina Klein, former vice president of Malmö's Jewish community and the child of Holocaust survivors said; "without the Kesselman family, Jewishness in Malmo would suffer an enormous loss. So much of the community's Yiddishkeit is provided by them."

TODAY WE MUST SEND A MESSAGE TO EUROPE AND THE WORLD - THAT THE JEWISH PEOPLE ARE HERE TO STAY!!

What does that have to do with you?

• New accommodations have been found for the Kesselman family and their vital work.
• They offer concrete security solutions;
  1. Avoiding the walks through problematic areas!
  2. Suitable for crucial security requirements.
  3. Ensuring the continuity of the Kesselman's work in Malmo. 

• However, the cost of acquiring the property is very high and time is limited.
• Due to the kindness of Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky and a considerable loan for the purchase, we have succeeded in procuring the lion’s share of the required sum.

We now need $300,000 to finalize the acquisition and subsequent security requirements of the property as soon as possible!

You can help!

If we can raise $150,000 before the 30 hour period ends, a group of generous donors will match every dollar raised.

Every dollar donated today is DOUBLED!!!

$100 = $200

$250 = $500

$600 = $1,200

$1,000 = $2,000

$1,800 = $3,600

PLEASE OPEN YOUR HEART AND CONTRIBUTE TODAY!
