(Courtesy of Torat Reva) Torat Reva Yerushalayim, a nonprofit organization based in Jerusalem, will once again be preparing mishloach manot/matanot l’evyonim packages which will be delivered to the neglected and homebound elderly of Jerusalem. The packages will include healthy snacks, gifts and Purim treats.
Their goal is to prepare a minimum of 300 packages.
The packages that Torat Reva Yerushalayim delivered over the last 17 years to Jerusalem’s elderly were the ONLY gift packages that these individuals received.
According to the Rambam in his Mishneh Torah: “Gifts for the poor deserve more attention than the seudah and mishloach manot because there is no greater, richer happiness than bringing joy to the hearts of needy people, orphans, widows and proselytes.”
A donation of $18 covers one package, $180 covers packages for an entire floor of a nursing home.
Donate online at www.toratreva.org or mail a check payable to Torat Reva Yerushalayim to: 110 Chestnut Ridge Road, Suite 228, Montvale, NJ 07645. Donations are fully tax deductible.
If you would like to send mishloach manot to a student or family member living in Israel, please visit basketsoflove.org. Baskets start at $36. All proceeds go to tzedaka.
