Celebrating 50 Years of the Kashrus Campaign

A Legacy Renewed. A Future Strengthened.

Fifty years ago, in 1975, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, of righteous memory, launched Mivtza Kashrus — a campaign to inspire every Jew to embrace the mitzvah of kosher. With both vision and care, the Rebbe established a special fund to help families take their first steps, covering half the expenses associated with starting a kosher kitchen.

​

Since then, Lubavitch of Wisconsin has been privileged to assist hundreds of families across Milwaukee, Madison, and beyond in koshering their homes. Today, kosher observance in Wisconsin continues to thrive — reflected not only in homes, but also in the growing number of kosher dining options across the state.

​

Now, on the milestone 50th anniversary of Mivtza Kashrus, Lubavitch of Wisconsin is proud to continue the Rebbe’s legacy

Just as the Rebbe himself did, we are establishing a Community Fund for Kosher Homes.

This fund is designed to assist families who wish to begin keeping kosher by helping cover the cost of dishes, utensils, and appliances needed for a kosher kitchen.

 

Families ready to take this step can apply using the form.
