Sale of Hametz 2024

Bill of Sale

NOTE: If possible, all hametz—food not acceptable during Pesach (Passover), or materials containing such unacceptable food—should be destroyed or given away before the holiday begins. Should this be impossible, the hametz may be stored in such a way that we are sure not to use it during the holiday and its actual ownership is transferred to a non-Jew until the holiday ends. This is traditionally done in the week prior to Pesach. In any event, please complete the form below and return no later than Monday, April 22 at 9am. To perform a kinyan sudar – a symbolic acquisition through an object – please check the website or speak with the Rabbis.
