Yedid Shavuos Gifts 5785
June 01, 2025

There are no words for the 8-year-old boy, shoulders hunched, fighting tears as he learns alone in shul all night... without Totty.
There are no words for the family's searing pain as they prepare the milchige kiddush and seudah ... without Mommy.
And there are no words for the warmth that envelops families who've lost a parent when Yedid delivers flowers and cheesecake on erev Shavuos.
From a recipient of a Shavuos package... who has no words:
"There are no words to express my sincere hakaras hate for your beautiful flowers and delicious cake. The fact that you remember me is enough. I don't have to tell you that every day since our loss has been hard, but Yom Tov is murder. By doing this, you put some light into our lives."
This Shavuos, Yedid's heartwarming packages told 750 grieving families that they aren't forgotten. That they deserve to experience simchas Yom Tov. That someone sees their pain and genuinely cares.
