Sh’tar Mechirat Chametz – Authorization to Sell Chametz
Note: If possible, all chametz – food not acceptable during Pesach (Passover), or materials containing such
unacceptable food – should be destroyed or given away before the holiday
begins. Should this be impossible, the chametz may be stored in such a way that we are sure not to use it during
the holiday and its actual ownership is transferred to a non-Jew until the
holiday ends.

Beth Meier, 4302 Van Nuys Bl, Sherman Oaks, CA 91403 or to ravflom@sbcglobal.net no later than Thursday,
