The sweetest start to the year is watching our founder, Rabbi Grossman and his wife Rebbetzin Esther Grossman, visit dozens of classrooms at Migdal Ohr, giving each and every child a jar of honey and a personal blessing for a Shana Tova, a good, sweet, healthy, and happy new year.

But the sweetness doesn't stop there.

As Sukkot approaches, Rabbanit  Grossman gives every student a bag bearing the words “Mashehu Tov Bishvilcha,” meaning “Something good for you.” Inside, each child finds brand-new shirts, kippot, and pairs of tzitzit, ready for the holiday.

And just as fathers take their children shopping for the arba minim, the four species, Rabbi Grossman makes sure every student receives a lulav and etrog of their own.

These may seem like simple gifts, but they let each child know that they are just as important as

That's what makes the holidays at Migdal Ohr so special. Through these personal gestures, Rabbi and Rabbanit Grossman and the entire staff ensure that every child feels the warmth of a family and is able to prepare as a family does for the upcoming holiday - with new clothing and the arba minim (four species) to perform the mitzvot of Sukkot.

Thank you for making these moments possible. Because of you, each child at Migdal Ohr can look and feel their best for the holidays, surrounded by the care and love every child deserves.

May all your prayers for yourself and your family be answered. Wishing you a year filled with sweetness, good health, happiness, and revealed miracles.

Shana Tova u'Metuka!
