One of the mitzvot mentioned in the Shema prayer and recited twice daily by the Jewish people , is the mitzvah of Tefillin.
Tefillin is unique because it is called a "Sign". This sign is the connection between a man and his creator. This sign is on par with Shabbat and holidays. This is why tefillin is not worn on these days.
Tefillin is one of the mitzvot that has not changed since Moses at Sinai. It is a mitzvah passed down from father to son throughout the generations.
The Tefillin Gemach (acronoym for gemmilat chassadim - acts of kindness) was established to assist those that cannot afford their own set.
Every applicant must commit to putting tefillin everyday as well as participate $100 toward the cost of the tefillin. This is an assurance that the applicant is truly committed to this great mitzvah.
Be a part of something eternal. Sponsor a pair of tefillin for someone that can not afford a set. Assist those to reconnect to their connecting to Sinai.
Testimonials:
"I just wanted to express my sincere thanks and gratitude for the beautiful Teffilin. The workmanship is second to none. Each morning I start my day, putting on the Teffilin feeling that much closer to the Almighty. It is hard to believe I went 60 years before starting. It is never too late. For those that are thinking about it, do it." - Jeffrey A.
