Sheimot Collection & Puskha Exchange
11:00am - 1:00pm

Make this Sunday a day for fall cleaning! Along with your surplus clothes and sefarim, bring your sheimot and loose change to the Bayit! Please bring your sheimot items in medium size bags or boxes that are both sturdy and not too heavy. Donations of $18 per box or bag to cover the cost of burial are requested. New, reusable Bayit pushkas will be available for pick up to start your next collection.
See thebayit.org/sheimot to understand what is considered sheimot and should be buried according to Jewish guidelines.
