for all that they do. 
“It’s meaningful every year, 
but this year frankly even 
more so,” Gross said. “Right 
now, it’s a dangerous time 
to be Jewish, and these guys 
are willing to come out and 
protect us, so it’s important 
they know we appreciate it.” 
While Gross was integral 
in the financial efforts for 
West Bloomfield’s Feed 
the Force, Rabbi Shneur 
Silberberg of the Bais 
Chabad Torah Center was 
integral in promoting it 
to the community and 
helping with the delivery on 
Thanksgiving Day, his third 
year of doing so.
Silberberg says this year’s 
experience of feeding the 
West Bloomfield Police 
Department worked out well. 
“The message I told 
them at the station was 
that we’re always grateful 
and appreciative of their 
work, but this year, the 
appreciation is even stronger. 
With what’s going on and 
the hostility that exists, the 
West Bloomfield Police 
Department has been 

extremely available,” he said. 
Silberberg is also extra 
appreciative of those 
who donated funds and 
contributed generously, 
especially with so many 
urgent causes for the Jewish 
community to support right 
now. 
Rabbi Tzvi Muller backed 
the Bloomfield Township 
and Birmingham efforts on 
behalf of the Blumenstein 
Jewish Learning Center. 
Muller, also the rabbi of the 
Birmingham-Bloomfield 
Shul, offered a short 
expression of gratitude for 
the officers once all the food 
was set up at the stations.
“One thing I tried 
to communicate is we 
appreciate that they’re there 
for us in a big way every day 
of the year. So, it’s nice that at 
least one day a year, albeit in 
a small way, we can try to be 
there for them,” he said.
Organizers believe the best 
result that could come out 
of Metro Detroit’s Feed the 
Force efforts would be other 
communities seeing it and 
wanting to replicate it.
