For 38 years, The YTC Emergency Aid Fund Matanos Levyonim Bo B'Yom has been a trusted lifeline for struggling families. According to Rabbi Schwartz, “Over the years, we have been fortunate to distribute hundreds of thousands of dollars to help hundreds of destitute families in the United States and Israel. In their ongoing peril, these funds are critically needed.”
These funds will be actively distributed Bo B’Yom, throughout Purim Day, under the direction of Rabbi Aron Pam, the son of the beloved and revered Rav Avraham Pam, zt”l, and current Director of the Emergency Aid Fund. Our annual donors include many esteemed rabbanim, congregation leaders, and individuals from Manhattan, Five Towns, Long Island, Baltimore, Brooklyn, and beyond. There will be a special distribution in the greater Jerusalem, Bet Shemesh, and Tzfat areas, as well. Extra thousands of dollars are being distributed throughout all Purim and Shushan Purim, so your donation will be used to cover our Bo b'Yom outlay.

At ESMF Kanfey Shemesh, we dedicate ourselves to the mission of strengthening Jewish life – from the whole of Israel right down to our very backyard. In keeping with ESMF’s 2026 goals, we hope you will partner to support our critical expansion of our community support and spiritual guidance initiatives. As you know, the Jewish community in Israel—particularly in high-growth areas like Ramat Beit Shemesh—is facing unprecedented social and emotional pressures.
​
ESMF Kanfey Shemesh has spent years building a multi-faceted platform that bridges the gap between traditional Torah education and modern social services. Your support allows us to scale our impact in three primary areas: Bikur Cholim (including training young people in this chesed-filled mitzvah), Events and Support for Soldiers and their Families, Crisis Counseling, Powerful Torah Education and Sponsored Learning, Meaningful Shabbatons and Yom Tov Experiences, Tefillot at Kivrei Tzaddikim, and more -- helping foster a stronger Jewish community and a deeper connection to Jewish identity!
