Those who respond to the request of Maran Sar HaTorah HGR’ Chaim Kanievsky ztvk”l- “The donors of 383 to Kupat Ha’ir will merit 383 days of a good and sweet year”- will receive the tefillah of a minyan of Gedolei HaDor on Rosh HaShana night
On Rosh HaShana night, ten Gedolei HaDor shlit”a- Maran HGR’ Moshe Sternbuch shlit”a, Maran HGR’ Baruch Dov Povarsky shlit”a, Maran HGR’ Yitzchak Zilberstein shlit”a, Maran HGR’ Shraga Steineman shlit”a, Maran HGR’ Shimon Galai shlit”a, Maran HGR’ Shmuel Eliezer Stern shlit”a, Maran HGR’ Mordechai Shmuel Edelstein shlit”a, Maran HGR’ Massoud Ben Shimon shlit”a, Maran HGR’ Binyamin Finkel shlit”a, and Maran HGR’ Elimelech Biderman shlit”a will daven and, with each siman of Rosh HaShana night, will mention Kupat Ha’ir donors- that they should merit a year that’s good and sweet as honey, that their merits should increase like a pomegranate, and that their enemies should be destroyed.
Many waves were made as the public responded to the call and the letter from previous years of Maran Sar HaTorah HGR’ Chaim Kanievsky shlit”a, with an explicit and special brocha for the upcoming Yamim Nora’im in which he blesses donors to his tzedaka organization Kupat Ha’ir with these amazing and moving words: “Bs”D Erev Rosh HaShana – those who contribute 383 to Kupat Ha’ir will merit 383 days of a good and sweet year, for tzedakah to Kupat Ha’ir is the most excellent tzedakah to tear up an unfavorable decree.” With phrasing that made waves throughout the Jewish world, Maran ztvk”l concluded his letter: “And whoever does this – they will certainly remove unfavorable decrees from him and he will emerge meritorious from the judgment.”
Great excitement gripped the Jewish world from the time that this letter that Maran Sar HaTorah HGR’ Chaim Kanievsky shlit”a wrote was publicized. He accompanied Kupat Ha’ir for the 22 years of its existence until his departure to the Next World, and in previous years before the upcoming days of judgment and compassion it was decided to publicize in the brochure his explicit and currently relevant words about how to be found meritorious in judgment.
Maran Sar HaTorah HGR’ Chaim Kanievsky shlit”a, who knew from up close the tzedakah and rescue activities of Kupat Ha’ir, saw it fitting to bless the donors to his organization with a special brocha for a good and sweet year as he specified and showed a practical way to merit a complete year in which every day would have its own brocha.
In his special brocha, Maran Sar HaTorah HGR’ Chaim Kanievsky shlit”a noted the sum of 383 as the donation to Kupat Ha’ir by which the donors would merit 383 days of a good and sweet year in the upcoming year, and he concluded with, “And whoever does this – they will certainly remove unfavorable decrees from him and he will emerge meritorious from the judgment.”
