For the last 45 years of her life Bracha Kapach maintained a weekly distribution of food to families in need. The families came from all over Jerusalem and were a cross-section of Israeli society, all of whom had been referred to her by the municipalsocialwelfaredepartment.HOTboughthera freezer and, for eight years, supplied her with approximately 40 chickens, each weighing approximately 4 pounds, every week (with an additional chicken or two for the holidays). These chickens were a source of protein sadly lacking from mostoftherecipientsdiets.AlthoughBrachaKapachdiedsixyearsago,herworkis continuing.Hergrandchildrenlearnedtheimportanceofhelpingothers,andasaliving memorialtotheirgrandmothertheyhavecontinuedherwork.HOTcanthinkofnofiner memorial to a woman who spent her life helping others!
