One often-overlooked population is widows and orphans. They suffer quietly, they fall through
the cracks, and have no one to turn to for help. However, they do have Kollel Shomrei
Hachomos who has always made them their priority.
UMeirim, a project of KSH, harnesses the special powers of candlelighting to bring light into
homes across the globe.
For generations, the pushkah of Reb Meir Baal Haness has played an integral role in the
moments before candle lighting. Women slipped a coin into the ubiquitous red and yellow
pushkah and whispered a quiet tefillah.
In today’s busy world, we often make it to candle lighting out of breath and a little frazzled.
Giving tzedakah, while a wonderful practice, has fallen to the wayside.
Umeirim makes it easy: Every erev Shabbos and Yom Tov your card will automatically be
charged with the amount of your choosing.
Today, thousands of women have re-embraced the time-honored tradition of giving tzedakah
before candle lighting and igniting a widow’s heart every week without fail.
Because nothing holds a candle to the power of a Jewish woman lighting candles.
