Paying to make Challah as a zechus for me

Unfortunately I've been given a very challenging life. Each time I overcome one struggle a new bigger one comes my way. A big gadol suggested I take challah every week- and give it to those in need, as a zechus. I tried but it is too hard for me. He suggested now that I pay someone that does it to do it on my behalf. I'm looking for someone who might work for an organization, or on her own distributes challah every week to those in need.... Or if anyone has any leads to someone that can help me. Thank you!

First of all, hatzlacha raba in all the ways you're needing, may you see yeshuos & may Hashem fulfill all of your hearts desires.

I have no idea how to contact her, or how active she currently is with this mitzvah, but maybe you could at least try reaching out to Mrs. Nava Ben Moshe to inquire?

Rabbi Nachman Seltzer wrote A Tiny Taste of Heaven, Amazing Stories about the Power of Hafrashas Challah, (published in 2020) which is about her initiatives in this specific area

Call Mrs devora heller. She’s known as the challah lady. She prepares the dough and you can make the brocha.
She’s really nice and helpful. You will feel comfortable speaking to her.

Maybe reach out to a local bakery and/tomchei shabbos and see if you can work together to sponsor something?

If it's local you can even go and make the bracha yourself.

If I lived in a normal frum community, challah would be a mitzvah I’d love to take on. Iyh soon one day.

We host meals for non-frum college students most weeks during the semester. If that counts as in need, you are most welcome to message me on a Friday morning and as long as I’m making it, I can take challah with you in mind!

I sincerely hope that things get better for you and you experience many many yeshuos in all areas of your life.

Do you buy challah every week?
I was under the impression that out of town communities don’t always have bakeries and women need to bake their own challah.
Where I live there are many bakeries in town but many women bake their own challah.
