Tomchei Shabbos of Bergen County mourns the loss of our dear friend
Boris Tulman A'h
Boris was the force behind the operation of Tomchei's warehouse for well over 25 years. Boris was known by hundreds of Tomchei volunteers for his dedication and hard work, even when he was well into his 90s. Boris was a volunteer who chose to make Tomchei Shabbos his responsibility.
He will be sorely missed.
About UsSince 1990, Tomchei Shabbos has provided meals to needy families in Bergen county.
During this time, over million meals have been distributed to Jewish families in Bergen county. Each week these households receive Shabbos meals, bringing a sense of normalcy and tranquility into the home. Tomchei Shabbos does not insist on uncovering uncomfortable details. The need for help is brought to our attention and confirmed with local organizations and rabbis. Each delivery is done with dignity, respect and the utmost discretion. Our drivers are carefully selected for each route and there are many ways to obtain a package anonymously. We fundamentally believe that how we give is just as essential as what we give. Selfless dedication Over 70 volunteers pack and distribute the Shabbos meals every week. This ensures that nearly 100% of our operating expenses go directly towards the purchase of food items such as eggs, vegetables, fruit, fish, chicken, Challah and other essential basics. For Pesach alone, 900 pounds of matzah and one and a half tons of chicken were distributed. We have not cancelled a delivery in over fifteen years.
