Not in history books.
Not 80 years ago.
Right NOW!
Two Yidden from Eretz Yisrael are trapped in brutal prison conditions in Poland. Separated from their families, broken emotionally, and desperate for help.
One can finally get out on bail.
But only if we raise $55,000 immediately.
Without it, he may remain in prison for years awaiting trial.
The second Yid is facing years behind bars as well. His wife in Eretz Yisrael is hospitalized and struggling psychologically while he sits alone in a foreign prison. A qualified lawyer can help reduce his sentence, but the legal fees are enormous.
For months, Rabbi Sholom Ber Stambler, the Rebbe’s Shliach in Warsaw for over 21 years, has personally visited them, brought them kosher food, supported them, and fought for them.
Now he’s asking Klal Yisrael to step in.
The Rambam calls Pidyon Shvuyim the greatest mitzvah.
As we prepare for Matan Torah, how can we stand by while fellow Yidden sit imprisoned, alone, and forgotten?
Help bring a Yid home.
Help save a family.
Help fulfill one of the greatest mitzvos in the Torah.

The JAG link is not working for me. Maybe due to the filter. Regardless, the direct Charidy link to donate can be easily found by web-searching Rabbi Stambler’s name.
What were they accused of? The scenario cited in above (that we need to “buy” the release of innocent people with extra-legal payments) sounds somewhat out of date. In fact, at present here in the 21st century, Poland is one of the few European countries where an Orthodox Jews (not disguised to pass as a goy) can walk the streets without fear of being attacked.
