HELP THE POOR OF JERUSALEM WITH FOOD COUPONS
..........
A WAKEUP CALL TO YOU
The sound of the Shofar on Rosh Hashanah is a heavenly call to wake us up to our responsibilities to G-D, to ourselves, and to our fellow Jew.
You have the opportunity to address these responsibilities and to also gain a favorable heavenly judgment for a blessed year by helping us provide grocery vouchers for holiday food to over 600 families in Israel. These vouchers will enable them to have food for the Holidays they could otherwise not afford.
Please don't miss this opportunity to bring happiness to the poor in Israel and happiness to yourself for coming to their rescue.
Please sponsor as many families as possible.

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.
