A FAMILY IN BAYSWATER NEEDS HELP: From Orthomom's post:
A reader e-mails:
A family in Bayswater had a terrible fire erev Yom Tov and their house that they were renting completely burned down. B”H they all got out okay, but the father who saved the entire family plus all the tenants in the house, has some 3rd degree burns and cuts. This happened at 4am on Sunday. The family of 7 (5 kids ranging from 6 months to 13 years), have lost everything they own. There was no insurance. The people to contact are Ilanit at the Sephardic Beit Medrash of Bayswater @ 917-796-7865 or Batia @ 917-257-1078. Checks can be made out to:
