The Charity Administrator Of Crown Heights

Matchmaker, guidance counselor, fundraiser, activist: Shimshon Stock was a beloved fixture of the Crown Heights community for many years. Yet, he was probably best known for founding and leading the Chevra Simchas Shabbos V’Yom Tov Charity Fund. Surprising as it may sound, it wasn’t always so certain that he’d become such a staunch Chassid and devoted Jew. Rambunctious and somewhat rebellious, he was a fun-loving American teenager in the 1940s, when he met the Rebbe one day while on his way to the movies. The ensuing relationship transformed his life – and the lives of many, many others.
