About us Being in the hospital is challenging – but Chesed 24/7 transforms the experience for patients and their family members. We deliver fresh kosher meals to hundreds of bedsides each day, host thousands of people in our chesed rooms, and provide the sick with everything they could possibly need, both in and out of the hospital. Kosher food, hot coffee, a place to stay for Shabbos; even phone chargers or reading material – if there’s something a patient needs, Chesed 24/ provides it. Our story Chesed 24/7 was founded in 1989, when Rabbi and Mrs. Shulem Pesach and Chavie Greenberg realized that there was no place for an observant Jew to pray or find kosher food in the hospital. They were already involved in chesed, and were sending meals to kimpatorins (new mothers) in New Square. But this, they felt, was a critical void. While others might shrug and say, “there’s nothing we can do about it,” the Greenbergs boldly requested a meeting with the president of Columbia University. At the meeting, they described the challenges faced by Jews in the hospital. Then they made a bold request. “We’d like a room, so that we could set up a kosher coffee station, and provide food and comfort to Jews in the hospital,” they said. To their great shock, they soon received an answer: Yes! Columbia University would provide the room! And so, Chesed 24/7 was born. Today, the organization runs chesed rooms in 24 hospitals, and has become a lifeline to patients and their loved ones.
