HELP THE POOR OF JERUSALEM WITH FOOD COUPONS

..........

THIS PURIM HAVE A REALLY GOOD TIME

Our goal for this year's Purim Campaign is to enable 250 needy and destitute families put food on their tables. They are real 'Evyonim'.

The Chofetz Chaim writes in the name of the Rambam, that one should allocate more money for "Matonos Levyonim" than for "Mishloach Manos" and Seudos Purim.

Treat yourself to a feast of Heavenly reward by bringing joy to these families, who lack the basic necessities.

Click here and donate to help needy families.

Small family - $180, Medium family - $360, Large family - $540 6 small families - $1080, 4 medium families - $1440, 5 medium families - $1800, 4 large families - $2160. Any size contribution will help.

What We Do:

  • To each family we give cash coupons that are redeemable at one of 2 large full-service supermarkets.
  • They can use these coupons to buy food and other such items only from these stores.
  • The stores give us a discount of 7 1/2% to 10%, therefore making the donor's dollar that much more helpful.
  • The stores will not give change, only credit for another purchase.

Checks and Balances

  • Each Coupon has a serial number and expiration date.
  • After the expiration date, we collect and collate all coupons according to serial number to check if the coupons were redeemed. If not then we contact that family to find out the reason.

Key Points

  • We offer the coupons only to those in grave need.
  • Coupons can only be used at these stores, and are non-transferable.
  • Coupons can not be exchanged for cash- to make sure they're used the right way.
  • Nobody knocks on our door. The Individuals responsible for determining who will receive assistance - and how much assistance - are kept anonymous. In other words, the families do not come to us- we go to them.
  • Collectively the 3 Rabbis on the board know most of the families personally, and the ones we don't know, we inquire about.
