Mezuzos, Tefillin, Sifrei Torah, etc., have long been produced by individuals working independently, with no supervision. As a result, there are countless stories of STa”M articles which have been in use for years – or even decades – and subsequently discovered to be invalid. Even more alarming, countless Jews around the world are still using STa”M every day, unaware that it does even meet the most basic standards of halacha.
STAMP is a nonprofit organization whose sole mission is to restore transparency and reliability to the field of STa”M (Sifrei Torah, Tefillin, Mezuzos, Megillos and Nevi’im). Our activity is under the direct supervision of five of the industry’s leading authorities: Rav Chaim Sperling, Rav Moshe Uri Bloi, Rav Don Bricker, Rav Yaakov Zions and Rav Reuvain Mendlowitz shlit”a.
STAMP was founded in 2019 by its director, Rabbi Avraham Yechezkel Lessin.
