Rabbi Shafner will be coordinating the sale of chametz for Kesher Israel this year.

All Kesher Israel chametz sales will be conducted online.

Though in other years it may be preferable to appoint Rabbi Shafner in person, your online agency is fully acceptable halachically. Please click here to fill out the online form. That is all that is required.

The online form must be completed by Tuesday, March 23rd!  

Please wait an hour after the end of the holiday to use your chametz.  If you have questions, please do not hesitate to be in touch with Rabbi Shafner.  

In lieu of our annual Chametz Drive, we will be partnering with Capital Kosher Pantry and Yad Yehuda of Greater Washington to provide necessary items for Pesach for families in need. Please find the shopping list of Kosher for Passover items here, or to donate items in person, email chesed@kesher.org.
