To: avigdorshelpinghand.orgJust a note to thank you and the members of the Yad Avigdor Fund for all the help you have provided for _____ _________ and her two daughters. The funds provided have been invaluable in allowing _____ to finish school and get on her way. Baruch Hashem she is doing much better these months — physically, emotionally and financially, she is improving. With Social Security finally worked out and a job in the near future, we are hopeful that she is becoming more financially stable. I will let you know if we will need to apply for the ‘third’ installment of the fund. I am hoping that she will be working shortly and that these funds can be used to help another family.

Thanks for your very special help. It was really important to her well-being and that of her family’s. In the zechus of your tzedakah and chessed, may Hashem send you continued nechamos and kochos to help so many in need. Tizku l’mitzvos.

Miriam Weiss

On behalf of the _________ Family Fund

By Rochelle Maruch Miller

To have known Avigdor Glaser, z’l, was to love him. A devoted family man, he was adored by his wife, Frumi, and their three young children and beloved by his parents and siblings.
