Hi, this is Leah G. writing on behalf of Ohr Natan.

Family Purity - Taharat Hamishpacha - is a fundamental tenet of Jewish life. Throughout the generations Jewish women had kept this mitzvah with tremendous mesirut nefesh, self-sacrifice.

Unfortunately, the Briarwood section of Queens has no mikvah for ladies until today.
Plans are underway for a beautiful mikvah to be built in the Ohr Natan shul of Briarwood.  Many Rabbis and organizations have come out in support of the project, including the renown Kalever Rebbe, as well as Rabbi Steinberg, Rabbi Oelbaum, Rabbi Ben Haim and Mikvah USA  (to name a few).

You can understand the importance of this mitzvah as explained by the Chofetz Chaim: "The building of a mikvah takes precedence over buiding a shul, buying a sefer Torah, and all other mitzvos" (Sefer Taharas Yisroel).

Why not add more mitzvot and zchuyut (merits) to your spiritual bank in shamayim?

And for a limited time your donation will be DOUBLED by Mikvah USA  - so if you donate $100 it is as if you gave $200! When you give $500 it is considered as if you donated $1,000! and so on...

I ask all of you, and especially Jewish women who understand the importance of this holy mitzvah, to give generously. In particular those who are in need of a yeshua and are praying for zivug or for a child - donating towards this holy cause is a known segula to be blessed with a finding your soulmate - למציאת זווג הגון
and to have children -ולהפקד בזרע של קימא.

I hope you can heed the call and donate to the best of your ability, and in the merit of your donation to this holy cause, may you and your family be blessed with health, wealth, and sucess in all your endeavors, and have a truly blessed year! 

Please note: Ma'aser money can certainly be used!
Your donation is tax deductible!
Oh, and rest assured - All the money raised - every penny of it - will be used towards building the mikvah. There are no administration fees or other such expenses.
