Rav Chaim Vital’s Erev Sukkos
Was time to give much tzedaka
Sukka lights have been inching in
Since the shofar after Yom Kippur
Tonight those lights blaze on in
And tzedaka today helps us absorb them
Throughout Sukkos
Best is to sponsor Yom Tov meals
(Contact a local organization
Or rabbi if necessary)
Vital Sukkos prep
Do it today
Say עולו אושפיזין עלאין קדישין
With confidence and simcha
Chag Sameach Tamid
Chag HaSukkos Needs To Compute
Chag HaShavuos is built on a successful seven week avoda
Seven shavuos per person
Shavuos plurality
Chag HaMatzos requires three matzos under each seder plate
And commendable matza consumption all seven days
Matzos plurality
Chazal suggest all Jews dwell in a singular sukka of unity
שכל ישראל ראויים לשבת בסוכה אחת
And the festival is called Chag HaSukkos
Plurality of mystery

Global Warming | Shabbos Sukka
Chatzos Kollels have become popular in recent years. Only the Zohar emphasizes the importance of this practice. It’s repeated there dozens of times.
With the haskama of Rav Moshe Shapiro zt”l I encourage people to learn this way themselves whenever possible.
When we can’t, next best is to sponsor someone who can. The ideal subject of learning after chatzos is Kabbala.
$1500 will sponsor a talmid chochom learning kabbala in Yeshivas Rashbi for a month.
Twenty years ago a colleague in the Mir discovered a number of talmidei chachomim struggling financially who refused to receive tzedaka. He outsmarted them.
They were invited to join a Shabbos kollel paying them nicely for learning they were doing anyway wherever they want. Donors don’t know the recipients, and the recipients don’t even know they’re receiving tzedaka. This is the Stealth Kollel.
Stealthily supporting thirty world class talmidei chachomim learning in Yerushalayim. The most ideal form of tzedaka, as stipulated in Bava Basra 9a.
There are no expenses and no advertising. 100% tzedaka.
Sponsoring one avrech for a month is $1000. But donations of any size are warmly welcomed.
