Live fish will be available for purchase, or you may bring your own charity money ($15-$20 per person as is customary) and Rabbi Allouche will be on hand to guide you through the entire process.   

 

The age-old custom of "Kaparot" is traditionally performed on the eve of Yom Kippur, by grasping a live chicken, a Kosher fish or charity money and moving one of them around one's head three times; symbolically transferring one's sins to the chicken, fishor money. The chicken, fish or money are then donated to the poor.
