All the volunteers – both young and old – then interacted and shared stories.
The organisation also launched its Shabbat Care Packages project, through which it tries to ease the load for any Jewish patient who needs to spend Shabbos in hospital.
Bikkur Cholim has a box which it tries to provide to each patient. These boxes include mezonot biscuits, hamotzi challah rolls, kiddush wine, electronic candles (halachically acceptable), spices for Havdalah, Divrei Torah and some nosh.
Anyone who would like to get involved in any of of Bikkur Cholim’s projects, may call (011) 440-3606 or visitwww.bikkurcholim.co.za
