“This is the most amazing organization run by the most amazing selfliss people. The chesed of the New Square community is really unbelievable. I notice they changed the name from Chesed of New Square to Chesed 24/7 and this is really tru. They really are doing chesed 24/7. I would not have survived my
wife’s hospital stay without them. She was in Lenox Hill for over 2 weeks and my family lived in the Chesed Room literally 24/7. There’s no way we could’ve had Shabbos in the hosptial without that room. Keep up the good work.”
No one should ever need them.
