Purim Day Matanot L'evyonim campaign for ISRAEL!

As Purim approaches, we are reminded of the joy and celebration that comes with this special holiday! Grocery stores stock up on sweet Purim treats, and toy stores are filled with colorful costumes and eager children.

The scent of fresh baked Humentashen emanate from bakeries and kitchens across Israel, and the anticipation surrounding Purim is so strong that it makes it easy for one to fulfill the mitzvah of celebrating with joy! Yet,

unfortunately, for many Israelis, the holiday season is a reminder of their struggle with hunger.

According to recent statistics, over 2 million Israelis are living below the poverty line! This refers to families with children, Holocaust survivors, IDF families, orphans, and more! Needy families are struggling to meet their basic needs, including nutritious food. They are suffering in hunger as inflation continues to grow!

Are we just going to sit idly by as children in Israel continue to live in hunger? Luckily there IS something YOU can do!

By donating Food Cards to the needy in Israel for Matanos Le' Evyonim YOU are easing the burden of a family struggling to obtain food!

I urge you to donate/pledge Food Cards on Purim day "בו ביום" for Matanos Le ' Evyonim!

We know that times are tough for many people right now, but we hope that you will consider making a Food Card donation to our hungry brethren in Israel this Purim!

Your Food Card donation can make a big difference in the lives of those who are struggling to put food on the table!

We are aiming at sending an additional 1,500 Families "Food Cards" at 300 שקל = $96 per family for Purim day (Matanot L'Evyonim)!

I wish to help my brethren in Israel with pre-paid Food Cards for the holiday of PURIM Day "Matanot L'evyonim" for:
