Who we are
Two Jews, LeShem Shamaim
We set up this site to connect the holy Jewish people with Torah scholars who serve Hashem LeShem Shamaim and devote all their time to it.
We ourselves work in industry and media. We have no personal or financial interest in these initiatives. Everything is LeShem Shamaim, for anyone who wants to help families who truly need it.
The families we help are families of avrechim we know personally. That is how we know the help reaches the right place.
