Selling the Hametz
If possible, all hametz - food not acceptable during Passover, or materials containing such unacceptable food - should be destroyed or given away before the holiday begins. Should this be impossible, the hametz may be stored in such a way that we are sure not to use it during the holiday and its actual ownership is transferred to a non-Jew until the holiday ends.
Click here to sell your Hametz online or print a hard copy to return to TBI.
Deadline is Friday, April 19
It is customary to perform the mitzvah of ma’ot hitin, giving tzedakah for those in need on Passover, when completing this form, but a monetary donation alone does not accomplish the sale of hametz. Checks made payable to Tiferet Bet Israel will be disbursed from the Rabbi’s Fund to assist families in need.
Seder Shiddach (Matchmaking)
Do you have room for one or more guests at your Seder? Do you need a place to experience the Passover celebration? Let us know, and we'll do our best make a match. Call or email Rabbi Rozenwasser or reach out to Emily Cutler, no later than noon on Monday, April 15, to give us time to make connections.
