Rabbi Anchelle Perl Offers Personalized Video Gretingd to Help Families & Friends Share Blessings for a Sweet New Year
MINEOLA, NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, August 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — MINEOLA, NY — At a time of year when Jews traditionally reach out to family, friends and loved ones with wishes for a Shanah Tovah—a good and sweet New Year—Chabad of Mineola is launching a new way to make those blessings especially personal.
Rabbi Anchelle Perl has announced the launch of the “Kosher Cameo” Video Project, offering complimentary personalized video messages of blessing, inspiration and encouragement—with absolutely no charge.
“Rosh Hashanah has always been a time when we exchange blessings,” said Rabbi Perl. “We call, we send cards, we text Shanah Tovah. Kosher Cameo takes that beautiful tradition one step further. Imagine someone you care about receiving a video made especially for them, mentioning them by name and offering a heartfelt blessing for the year ahead.”
A Blessing Made Especially for You
Individuals can request a Kosher Cameo for a spouse, parent, grandparent, child, friend, colleague—or anyone who could use a little extra warmth and encouragement as the Jewish New Year approaches.
Each video can incorporate personal details supplied by the sender and can include wishes for good health, happiness, success, strength, inspiration, a sweet New Year and a year filled with blessings.
There is no charge for the service.
“This is our gift to the community,” Rabbi Perl explained. “There are plenty of things in life that come with a price tag. A blessing shouldn’t have to be one of them.”
While Rosh Hashanah provides the perfect moment to launch the initiative, Kosher Cameos will continue throughout the year for birthdays, anniversaries, milestones, recovery and encouragement, celebrations, memorial occasions and other meaningful moments.
Bringing an Ancient Tradition Into the Video Age
The project combines something very old with something very new.
“For thousands of years, the Jewish people have understood the power of one person blessing another,” Rabbi Perl said. “Today we have technology that allows us to send that blessing across town, across the country or across the world in seconds. The technology may be modern, but the heart behind it is timeless.”
And Rabbi Perl emphasizes that the videos are not intended merely for the Jewish community.
“A kind word has no boundary,” he said. “If someone needs encouragement, celebration, hope or simply to know that another human being is thinking about them, we want Kosher Cameo to help provide that moment.”
How to Request a Free Kosher Cameo
To request a personalized video, participants should provide the recipient’s name, the occasion and date, several personal details they would like included, and their contact information.
Kosher Cameo videos are complimentary.

“As Rosh Hashanah approaches,” Rabbi Perl concluded, “we pray not only to receive a good year, but to help give someone else a good year. Sometimes that begins with something very simple: a name, a smile, a blessing and the knowledge that someone cares.
“May every Kosher Cameo add a little more light to someone’s life—and may we all be blessed with a Shanah Tovah U’Metukah, a good, sweet, healthy and peaceful New Year.”
