The Custom of Kaparot
Kaparot is a longstanding Jewish custom observed before Yom Kippur, inviting us to reflect on our actions, awaken sincere Teshuvah, and ask HaShem for compassion and a year of life and peace.
Traditionally, many communities perform Kaparot with a chicken, reciting the customary prayer before the bird undergoes Shechitah, with the chicken or its monetary value then given to charity. This practice reminds us of the preciousness of life and our responsibility to use it with kindness, purpose, and devotion to HaShem.
Kaparot is also performed with money, which is passed over the head while the traditional prayer is recited and then donated to Tzedakah. This established form of the custom connects our prayers for mercy with a meaningful act of generosity.
At the heart of Kaparot is a call to return to HaShem. The ceremony accompanies Teshuvah, encouraging us to take responsibility for the past and enter Yom Kippur with humility, hope, and a renewed commitment to doing good.
Through our service, Pidyon Kaparot is performed with money on behalf of you and your loved ones, with the designated funds donated to Tzedakah. Wherever you are in the world, you can arrange this meaningful preparation for Yom Kippur by submitting your names.
