A Mitzvah!

From time to time, people in the community require a blood transfusion. While blood from a hopital is safe, many people feel more comfortable receiving blood from someone they know. Or Torah has maintained a list of members who are willing to donate blood when needed. We have assisted many people over the years and would like to update our list. This is a wonderful way to help "cholim" at a crucial time in their lives. If you would like to participate in this Mitzvah, please submit your name, daytime phone number, and your blood type, including Rh factor (example: O+, A-).
Or Torah is a member of the OU
