Dear Members,
The Berman’s Zedaka Committee , together with local charity concerns continues to be grateful for the generosity of our members. However as Pesach approaches, for many in Rehovot the financial strain of the holiday is overwhelming. Last year, the Moat Hittim appeal raised 63 485 ILS. Of this sum, more than 70% was distributed directly through our Berman’s contacts and social workers to about 200 needy families, either in the form of food parcels or stipends. The remaining 25% was given to local welfare charities for distribution. Through your kindness, we were able to provide over 250 families with the basic requirements for the chag. This year we are hoping to increase out distributions, to reach even more families . For this we will need your goodwill and your generous help.
In order to allow those organizing food packages to budget their allocations, donations need to reach them early. Please help us by submitting your Maot Hittim contributions as soon as possible, and not leaving it until the week before chag, when it is difficult to organize distribution.
Thanking you as always for your kindheartedness, we take this opportunity to wish all our members a chag kasher v’sameach.
