mitzvos of STa”M in

The Issue

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.

Who We Are

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.

We accomplish our mission in 3 ways:

Regulate

Create a worldwide STa”M market that is 100% transparent and regulated.

Educate

Educate the public about STa”M and its halachic complexities, thereby empowering the consumer to make informed purchases.

Guide

Provide guidance to the public for all STa”M-related needs.
