ABOUT THIS EPISODE Israel is an amazing, magical land. As a state, it is also notorious for its bureaucratic challenges, especially for new immigrants. Enter Chaim v'Chesed, a marvelous organization helping English-speakers navigate this web - whether related to health care, paperwork, travel, or any other aspect of life in the Holy Land. Its founder, Rabbi Paysach Freedman, is a tour d' force and passionate purveyor of kindness for so many of these needs, and more! -------------------- ABOUT THIS PODCAST Jews You Should Know introduces the broader community to interesting and inspiring Jewish men and women making a difference in our world.
