In an emotion-filled video, Rabbi Simon Jacobson highlights the loneliness experienced by single mothers, divorcees, and widows—and shares how we can help. “My dear friends, one of the saddest things in life is to be alone. Human nature is that every person needs companionship, needs a partner.” With these heartfelt words, Rabbi Simon Jacobson begins his emotional plea. “One of the most unsung heroes in society are mothers—but even more overlooked and unrecognized are single moms, widows, and divorcees raising children alone. Too often, they are ignored, not out of malice, but because their pain makes us uncomfortable. Let’s be honest—we shy away from those who are suffering. Yet, they endure profound loneliness. That’s why one of the greatest mitzvahs is to be there for them.
