You will find Devorah Benjamin standing on the corner of Kingston and President Street, on a cold, rainy Sunday in May.
She is marrying off 60 couples this wedding season and so many of them have no one to turn to but her. She smiles and promises them everything will be okay but her pockets are empty.
I work with youth, bochurim and deal with a lot of engaged chassanim as well as Kallahs, and she has to send them away empty-handed because she has little to none left to offer.
This community needs to marry off our children. We all know at least one couple getting married, if everyone can give $18 in honor of every chosson and kallah we know.
In a few weeks, she is doing a charidy fundraising campaign – and she needs matchers.
So many complain that there is a “shidduch crisis” in this community. What did the Rebbe say when asked for advice? Give to a tzedakah that addresses your cause!
Give in dividends of 18, Chai, life, give what you can but give. Every family needs to empty out their pockets just as the yiddin received the Torah and experienced joy with Hashem, let’s marry off these couples with infinite joy, simcha and iYH spread that to all those in need.
Devorah is at every wedding – those that need help and those that don’t. She does her work with humility, dignity and goes to great lengths to protect the privacy of every couple. On that rainy Sunday, she shivers and looks up, asking Hashem to help her write that check. Holding her hand out for a quarter, a dollar bill, asking the Rebbe to give her strength.
Additionally, so many wonderful tzaddikim of Crown Heights, musicians, photographers, party planners, who go to great length to provide subsidized pricing.

devorah, just thanking you is nowhere near enough. You have helped with your pure ahavas yisroel so much, for so many situations!! May you be rewarded for that love by having your own nachas, and may it bring the geula sheleima NOW AD MOSSAI.(thankyou Devorah,and thankyou to her family for supporting her)
HELP ALL YOU CAN. You can be sure it all goes directly to help the needy chassanim and kallahs.
I discreetly go to various communities to raise money for Kcsvk. Little do we know that Kscvk helps also so many who turn to them and have even no connection to chabad or CH. It’s an unprecedented organization that reaches out to any crying neshama as the Rebbe taught
It is probaly the number one Tzedakah in the world!!!!
Pls support it with all u have!!
Devorah is incredible! I’ve never seen this deficit until know, she has enough on her plate, let’s help these couples get married in dignity.
Devorah I wish I could do more to help you than my little here and there. To those that can, and also to singles looking for Yeshuah— this is your cause. Please give generously! Devorah you are on the front lines and we’re rooting for you.
