Hi
I'm looking to find out if anyone knows criteria for being able to get help from Tiferes Devorah l Killah?
Or are there gemachim that people know of?

Why not call them and ask them? I've heard that there are different levels of criteria there, and it goes by need. For example, many Kallahs qualify to get what they need at cost price from them. Some get it more subsidized. And the most needy would likely get alot of free items.

Probably a Rav would be involved to vouch for a Kallah who really needs it.

Thanks!

Is it something thats embarrassing to call? Will we need to supply our tax returns or bills ? I'm looking for as much info about the process to see if my husband would be comfortable . If anyone has applied and can share about the process, I would be grateful!

Call them and ask them without giving you name.

Not OP, but do you need to live in a specific place (in-town) to get help from them? Can the financial help be anywhere? Or only specific halls, etc? I just don't know how we will pay for weddings in general. My kids aren't in shidduchim yet. We live OOT.

TDL is only for Lakewood Kallahs. There are takanah halls in Lakewood that have packages for anyone. Bais Faiga in particular makes many takanah weddings.

what size is your daughter?
My friend told me she has fancy clothing to give away to a kallah.

I happen to know some of the people involved in TDL. It's not embarrassing. In fact, one of the reasons they are so successful is, they get their merchandise much cheaper due to the volume they order. So every Kallah getting her stuff from TDL is helping with that leverage power. Many Kallahs pay cost price, and they have donors for those who don't, so it's not embarrassing to call them.
