Rabbi Zulberg is a pragmatist and he realized that South African Jewry, with a weak currency could not compete with North American and European communities. Still, he and so many others wished to help and do something, so a collection of items to be sent to those most-impacted in Israel was assembled and dispatched. But this was just the catalytic enzyme of what would become a project totally unique to South Africa.
