We Aimed Straight, Reached our Goal - and Surpassed it!
More than $900,000 distributed over Purim
Sunday, March 20, 2022Thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors, this year's Purim - Matanos L'Evyonim campaign was an astounding success.
Surpassing our goal, American Friends of Yad Eliezer distributed $925,000 to 6,075 needy families throughout Israel. Our gabbei tzedaka worked tirelessly in 50 locations, allocating funds to ensure families would have what they needed for the holiday. The following are just two gabbaim's reactions:
"I can't thank you enough...I wish you could see the smiles on the faces of the families we helped, and hear their words of deep gratitude and appreciation..."
"May you be blessed with all the brachos...the help you provided is indescribable...the majority of the families here have nothing and you truly made a difference for them...ישלם ה' לכם כפועלכם"
On behalf of the families who were able to celebrate Purim with dignity, thank you! Tizku L'Mitzvos!
