As the extent of the horror perpetrated in Pittsburgh is being recognized throughout not just Pittsburgh and the United States, but the world, shock and grief have followed in waves. But so, too, has the desire for action, for a concrete response to the worst anti-Semitic attack on American soil.

Rabbi Mordey & Shaina Richler, of Chabad at Lake Tahoe is remembering and honoring the victims locally with the “Pittsburgh Memorial Mezuzah Campaign,” geared to make sure that every Jewish home in the region has a mezuzah—a sacred handwritten parchment scroll that is mounted on the doorpost.

Join the Chabad at Lake Tahoe for the 4th annual trip to Virginia City Jewish Cemetery for the purpose of trimming the vegetation and stabilizing the graves. Help us with this great mitzvah of honoring the deceased.

We are meeting at the parking lot at the end of town 364 C St, Virginia City, Nevada at 9:30am and will continue from there to the cemetery.
