Campaign Launched to Assist Hundreds of Steipler and Reb Chaim Kanievsky ZT”L Family Members Ahead of Pesach

Mar 20, 2026·1 min read

With Pesach approaching, a renewed campaign is underway to provide critical financial assistance to hundreds of families connected to the legacy of Rabbi Yaakov Yisrael Kanievsky ZT”L and Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky ZT”L.

Organizers say they have the ongoing responsibility and privilege of supporting nearly 500 families who live with extreme financial restraint throughout the year. As Yom Tov expenses mount, the need becomes significantly more pressing, with basic necessities often out of reach.

To help alleviate this burden, the initiative distributes approximately $500 per family ahead of Pesach, an amount described as making a substantial difference in allowing recipients to prepare for Pesach with dignity.

Contributions can be made through several methods:
