Milk Trucks are Popping up all over Ukraine in Preparation for Shavuot

MAY 19TH 2023

From Krivoy Rog, to Kharkiv, to Poltava to Kyiv, delivery trucks are arriving at Jewish communities all over Ukraine, full of special products for the upcoming Shavuot holiday.

Meat, poultry, ice cream and cheesecakes will be distributed by rabbis, staff and volunteers to tens of thousands of local families. The ice cream, and many other products in the shipments, were produced in local factories.

Shavuot is a time of celebrations and spiritual reflection, as families and communities gather to observe traditions and customs passed down through generations. It is a holiday marked by the reading of sacred texts, engaging in acts of kindness and indulging in delicious dairy-based delicacies.

The distribution of holiday food items will allow Ukrainian Jews to celebrate another holiday in the shadow of the war.
