Sandy Seforim drive- replacing Seforim lost in Hurricane Sandy

Its 100 days since Hurricane sandy, over 30,000 Seforim were destroyed weighing over 200,000 pounds. These seforim needed 4 tractor trailers to transport them to genizah  HERE. The cost to replace is over One million dollars. Enter "Project Toras Chesed" children doing chesed through learning. Its a program where Children can raise money through learning Torah. The monies raised will be used to purchase seforim that will be given to shuls, yeshivos, and Individuals whose seforim were destroyed by Sandy and buried in Shaimos.
Children will ask relatives and neighbors to sponsor each pasuk, Mishna, line of Gemara learned or each perek of Tehilim said.

Project Toras chesed is a joint project of The Lefkowitz family young leadership initiative of Agudas Yisroel, Yeshiva Darchei Torah, Pirchei Agudas yisrael of America, Achiezer of the Five Towns, Partners in torah of Yeshiva Beth Yehuda of Detroit.
