With the current economic crisis and Shluchim feeling the pinch more than others, Rabbi Avrohom Korf, Head Shliach in Florida, has decided to provide Shmura Matzah, wine, gefilte fish and chicken to the Shluchim.
When word reached the owners of Aspaclaria Judaica about the dilemma of how to coordinate the receiving and distribution of the food, they immediately offered their premises and staff to assist in the distribution.
“We handled the distribution of close to 10000 pounds of Matzah in Florida, a substantial amount of which is used by Shluchim,” said Yosef Chaim Brook, one of the owners.
“We have the staff and the facilities to handle something like this and it is our absolute pleasure to assist the Shluchim in whichever way we can.”
Throughout the day, Monday, thousands of pounds of meat and fish, cases of Wine and Grape Juice and 100’s of cases of Matzah were distributed to the Shluchim.
I am completely shocked at the reaction that is being posted. I can only imagine what goes on on the shluchim network. Whoever you are (to all the above) when someone does something kind and giving (whatever the motives are or are not) it is still a gesture of goodwill! Your words are hurtful and completely out of line. You should be ashamed of yourself. Apparently, you have forgotten the #1 rule in life just say THANK YOU! Oh, and if you haven’t realized in these tough financial times, GIVING AWAY food or money to help out fellow shluchim cannot… Read more »
if you are for real and you really want to be makir betoiv, why not sign your real name???
all head shluchim who stuffed like sardines shluchim on top of each other like there was infinite resources for all, they have a moral responsibility to support on their cheshbon all the starving families.
they should bear the responsibility in this time of difficulty just like they capitilized and gained when things appeared to be going well.
Lechatchila ariber is not just when you can get free pr on COL it’s also putting in the sweat when needed so badly in these days
It is true!!He did give out a lot. I am a Florida Shliach!! Thank you Rabbi Korf and too bad that there are always people who can never say a good word. Btw the Tank parade was also incredible. What-are you jealous or s/t. Keep ur mouth shut if you have n/t good tpo say. Especially against s/o who tries hard to help.
All head shluchim and shluchim who have other shluchim under them should learn from him . I once heard a head shliach saying the whenever he buys himself a new car he makes sure his shluchim can also affortd one ….. not like othe shluchim that live on high standards while his workers could barely afford bread on their table…..
go yosef hellinger
Fact: the 10,ooo pounds used by Shluchim were bought from the store by Shluchim.
What Korf gave out (which he collected the money for it from other Shluchim) was a miniscule amount – I saw and heard with my own eyes and ears.
again exagerations??? First with the Tanks and now with this.
this is one whole publicity stunt. Check into it and you will see.
