SANTA MONICA - A unique rabbi has turned Tuesdays in Santa
Monica’s Ocean Park into something special for the homeless and needy.
For the past three years, Rabbi Boruch S. Cunin of Chabad
House in West Lost Angeles has walked the park, giving food to those in need,
and offering encouragement.
“What is so important is for everybody to understand: we are
all responsible, one for the other,” Rabbi Cunin said. “You see a person
hungry, feed them.”
Well-balanced meals, including foods like salmon, dried
fruits, beans, and rice, are prepared at the Chabad House kitchen. Rabbi Cunin
then personally delivers to the food to a shelter in Santa Monica and to the
homeless on the street.
Rabbi Cunin, who is the director of West Coast Chabad,
delivers the food to many familiar faces on the street, and offers words of
encouragement to the needy, such as “God bless you” and “Don’t ever lose hope”.
The preparation of the food is heavily supported by
donations.
