Pesach is next week. Power of Attorney forms for the sale of Chametz may be found here. Although there is a widespread custom to pay the rabbi who facilitates the sale ofchametz, Rabbi Bellino urges that you not do so. Instead, please feel free (but not obligated) to contribute to his Discretionary Fund. The most convenient way to do so is online. Be sure to specify that this is a Pesach donation to the Discretionary Fund.
