Yanky Mayer Misaskim "LAST INTERVIEW" - Project Yedid

[Music] i have seen this too many times that's when i said to myself never again do you see that yatom that orphan that's sitting in the house of avelute not really knowing what's going on with those little legs dangling barely reaching the floor when those small chairs of musaskim leave the house miss oskim does not leave that boy the saskim's project you did has probably been one of the best kept secrets we have many projects throughout the year and simple basis shave is one of them they give them a full blown concert a day of fun and entertainment with food five courses dinner big band top of the name performers in the jewish music world [Music] unbelievable i've had the host to be there from the very beginning which is a small crowd unfortunately over the years now they take a hall and it's very heartwarming to help them forget for a few hours the matzo that they're in and this simcha i think gives them koyachen and energy to go through the year till the next semester i'm going to an event you know what i'll bring along my lulavanestric you never know to my surprise besides a few guys in the band and the sound man who benched out the little vanessa they give i'm thinking to myself why didn't they do it at home i was very moved and very touched by the fact that i had the sacral to bring the rule of anesthesia i've never asked that before he goes up if anybody didn't bench lull of an asterisk hanukkah is family time a parent is missing it's never the same every family gets a package of toys each kid gets nine or ten dollars give bench to money from today's good island besides for that each kid gets his own hanukkah guilt go buy what makes you happy we have twenty four hundred your simon on our list do the math fifty dollars a child besides the ten dollars how much [Music] i picture a child that's always down and here's this box that shows up on hanukkah and inside every kid gets his own envelope it's with his name on it take a bench the money's in there and there's that chanukah guilt what does this mean for that kid it's priceless so yankee mayor makes his way over to a bar mitzvah and then almana walks up to him and she's already crying thank you you don't know what you've done for my orphans and you don't understand the dollars from the gedolim it just uplifted them but the money that they were given for all those toys my kids they pulled all that money together and they bought me a piece of jewelry [Music] it was the first piece of jewelry that was bought for me in almost eight years since my husband passed away you don't understand what this did for my family [Music] mommy mama [Music] that mom is gone the side of my parents house had a alleyway there was a bunch of shrubs and bushes without even being asked they just cleaned up the whole alleyway that way it's comfortable to be able to go through they realized the house was a little dim they said you can't see like this it's too thin we're like we're sending ship you know it's not a happy place anyways like we're talking about uh for three different type of fixtures the volunteers didn't do it because they were asked they did it because they cared they'll wash the floors they'll take out the garbage they'll clean the kitchen whatever is needed to get done a significant aspect of being a volunteer from assassin is on a friday afternoon literally two hours before this month a group of five guys volunteers came and that's it and besides for that they're going to bring in everything that's needed for shabbos all the meals gnash there should be no traces and no resemblance of whatever happened this whole week pack everything up clean up the whole house there's no zeitgeist that somebody's sitting shivering in this house it's back to normal regular shabbos so much so that i have personally witnessed a volunteer that said i'll be right back and ran down to the street corner just to buy a bouquet of flowers and put it on the table for shabbos i knock out the door and it's 9 30 at night and you see what you did brought over here last year pirims and schleichmonis cost the project you did over 400 000 every family got a personalized invitation had this invitation come in the mail it is a prim card but you choose a menu and they give you options like a wedding for them to pick appearance either what they want you're not going to anybody you tell us what you need and it's coming satmus gluten-free sugar-free all they had to do was set the table picture the magnitude of such an operation this went on in borough park in muncie and williamsburg and lakewood and ksc oil last year premium came out on a friday because this year falls out on friday they also are including a shabbos menu in addition everyone got an offer besides filipinos see that here's shabbos for you one of the services that he did has is supplying school supplies i have to run some errands and i meet a guy by a car outside and he asks me if i'm mrs hirsch and he says this is from assassin school supplies for each child five boxes they're they're just incredible literally incredible i'm not look at those little feet dangling on those small chairs remember that life moves on and miss oscar is there to bring a certain light to the home of the orphans hanukkah other programs that are helping now please team up with us and help us let's bring light to the homes of so many that need our help thank you we'll never cry [Music] again [Music] [Applause] you
