The Yad Ephraim annual dinner was held in Boro Park last night, Tuesday evening, at the Ateres Golda Hall.

Yad Ephraim was established nearly a decade ago with a simple mission: to be a volunteer bikur cholim service in the true spirit of the word. It started small, gathering a caring group of volunteers to distribute the warm, wholesome meals they prepared in their kitchen.

Their focus was Maimonides Hospital in Boro Park, firstly, because of its proximity to the organization, and secondly, because a large number of its patients ate kosher only, and they were able to provide kosher meals.

Over the years, the need for our services increased and the organization has grown to a large Bikur Cholim organization.
