The time before a kallah’s wedding should be the happiest time of her life. She has found her bashert. She is starting a family. She is ready for the next step of life’s incredible journey.  But all too often, the time before her wedding is filled with financial worry. So many brides lose sleep because they cannot pay for basic necessities. So many parents feel emotionally torn. They are happy for their children but overwhelmed by the cost of the wedding and starting the chosson and kallah off on the right foot.  Instead of brimming with simcha, kallahs feel lost. Uncertain about the future. Alone and unable to enjoy this special time.   That’s why your gift to Yad Batya L’Kallah is so important.  When you donate, you ease the burden of a kallah-in-need by providing essential household items.   You give her kitchenware to prepare Shabbos and yom tov meals. You give her towels and bedding so she and her husband can live respectably. You give her dinnerware so her table radiates warmth. You furnish her home.  But the truth is that your gift does so much more. That’s because when you donate, you give a bas Yisroel the gift of dignity. She will walk to her chuppah with her head held high because no one will ever know she was in need.   Because of you, Yad Batya will maintain the highest standards of anonymity. Many kallahs don’t even know who has sent them their gifts.   Because of you, a mother and father will rest easy, knowing that their children will have the basic necessities to start a household.   Because of you, another young woman will feel the simcha of knowing that Klal Yisroel is behind her, dancing with her throughout her marriage.   Make no mistake about it: Your gift will transform a person’s life. She will go from feeling alone and needy to feeling loved and cared for… all because of you.  Your gift is the ultimate way to be m’sameach a chosson and kallah.  More and more kallahs are turning to Yad Batya for help. Your gift answers their call.  We set an ambitious goal to raise $1,200,000 in just 36 hours. If we do not hit this goal, we simply won’t be able to meet the ever-evolving needs of the Yad Batya family.  Please open your heart and donate today. We don’t have a moment to lose.
