Incredible acts of kindness by an ultra-Orthodox Jew in one of the most Haredi neighborhoods in the world: "Having experienced firsthand the difficulties that accompany poverty, Schischa prides himself on preserving the dignity of his recipients. Food is delivered directly to the recipients front door in a plain unmarked box, looking no different than a grocery delivery from a local store. “There are no signs on the trucks,” reported Schischa. “I put one small letter on the outside of the box and the workers know that the letter needs to be placed next to the door so that only the family can see it and know that the box is from Tov V’chesed.” In the letter, Schischa gives each family names of people to daven for. “There are two reasons why we do this,” explained Schischa. “One is that we know that if you daven for someone who has the same need as you, your tefillos are answered. The other is that by giving them someone to daven for, we are giving people their dignity by making them feel that they aren’t just taking, they are givers as well.”
