Join us in celebrating and preserving the Jewish legacy in Poland
For many generations, Jews have travelled to Kivrei Tzadikim all over Europe to pray at holy sites in times of distress. Though we can pray wherever we may be, praying at the grave sites of our sages awakens their merit on our behalf.

About Us
Years ago, before air travel made visiting the Holy sites possible for all, Jews would send their Kvittel to the holy grave sites with messengers as their representatives, that would travel to that destination to pray at Mekomos Hakdoshim – holy sites on their behalf.
In our days, when travel is restricted in so many countries around the world, Global Kvittel made it much easier to do just that.
Our Shliach, a Chasidisher Yungerman from New York, who is currently residing in Krakow, will take your Kvittel and read it and be mispalel on your behalf at the grave site of your choice.
