AUTHORIZATION FOR THE SALE OF CHAMETZ FOR PASSOVER 5785/2025

Before Pesach, it is a requirement to eliminate all chametz (leaven, bread products or their derivatives) from our possession. Jewish law allows for chametz to be sold to a gentile in those circumstances when elimination is not an option. Arrangements for such sale may be made with Rabbi Berkman through use of this form. 

"Be it proclaimed that I hereby empower and authorize Rabbi David Berkman to sell all chametz that may be in my possession, knowingly or unknowingly, wherever it may be – at home, a place of business or elsewhere. This includes all goods which may be delivered to me over Passover. The Rabbi has full right to sell, dispose, and conduct all transactions, including rental of the place where the chametz is stored and rental of right of way as he deems fit and proper. The above power hereby being given is meant to conform with all Torah and Rabbinic regulations and laws. This transaction will be in effect for the duration of Passover, from 10:40 am Saturday, April 12, 2025 until 8:40 pm Sunday, April 20th."
