NCSY Canada Sefer Torah Campaign

We are privileged to be joining the Glowinsky family in launching our Netzach Yisrael Sefer Torah Campaign, in honour of Ruth and Isaac Glowinsky, who arrived in Canada after the Holocaust as young refugees. Through their unceasing spirit to persevere and rebuild their families and Klal Yisroel through their good works and generous philanthropy, they are the living embodiment of the verse “Netzach Yisrael Lo Yishaker.” This verse is the inspirational motif for our campaign, which conveys the profound idea that the Jewish people will forever endure despite the millennia of physical and spiritual threats to our existence.

To honour their parents, the Glowinsky family have chosen to sponsor the restoration of a Sefer Torah, originally from Eastern Europe, that has fallen into disrepair. Following its restoration, the Sefer Torah will accompany NCSY Canada across Canada, where it will be used and celebrated at an array of Shabbatons and programs, providing teens and their parents the opportunity to see a Sefer Torah up close, many for the first time.

The Netzach Yisrael Sefer Torah campaign will culminate with the Glowinsky family dedicating the Sefer Torah at an IDF base in Israel in the summer of 2023, in the presence of NCSY leadership, as well as hundreds of NCSY teens participating on TJJ, The Jerusalem Journey, NCSY’s premier summer in Israel trip.

Please help us honour Ruth and Isaac Glowinsky by sponsoring a portion of the Torah, be it as large as one of the five books or as small as a letter. You can also choose to sponsor a special reading corresponding to a foundational idea. No matter which sponsorship option you choose, you are contributing to the eternal light of the Jewish people.

May your generosity help to ensure the fulfillment of the promise of Netzach Yisrael Lo Yishaker, and may your actions serve as a proud and fitting symbol of our gratitude for the transformative contributions of Ruth and Isaac Glowinsky.
