MONSEY — A mobile kapparos operation is set to make a stop at a Monsey school as local families prepare for Yom Kippur.

A poster displayed at the school announces that a “Kapparah Truck” will arrive on Wednesday, September 16, offering chickens for the traditional minhag of kapparos.

The poster lists the price at $11 and says the service will operate from 3:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m., with advance ordering available.

Mobile kapparos services have become familiar in the Monsey area in recent years, bringing chickens directly to neighborhoods and community locations rather than requiring families to travel to a central kapparos site. A Monsey community publication previously advertised a Kaparah Truck traveling through several local neighborhoods.

The school poster drew attention to the unusual sight of the seasonal kapparos service coming directly to the school during the days leading up to Yom Kippur.
