After a few days of snow, it's back to business. I noticed that a few readers have visited our Welcoming Olim blog in search of Mishloach Manos. Yes, we do prepare Mishloach Manos. You can find some on our blog and also on our website. Our difficulty this year is we do not have drivers to deliver on Purim itself. Since most have required Mishloach Manos to be delivered on Purim, we need to know we will have delivery.
Do you know anyone in or near Yerushalayim who has a car and would be interested in assisting us to deliver Mishloach Manos? If you do, please have them be in touch with us PRONTO.
If you are able to come to us in person to collect your Mishloach Manos, we are happy to make to order. As you can see from other posts on our blogs and websites, we love to be creative.
Yes, for those asking, our making up of Mishloach Manos is another way we earn funds needed for Chessed Ve'Emet and our various activities including our Bayit Chadash Gemach.
For those worried about wastage from Mishloach Manos, we make to order and prefer to include items that will be enjoyed. Also, do keep in mind, once Purim is over, if you have any new items you received and do not need or want, please be in touch with Chessed Ve'Emet to donate them to us. Donated items are used either for making up gifts for our orphan Chatanim and Kallot or sold to earn funds needed to manage this important Gemach.
If you are not in Israel and would like to send a gift to a loved one anytime of year, do visit our Bayit Chadash Store. Items are gradually being put online. We have many more in stock. For those unable to get to us, we can link to you via Skype with webcam and help you to browse virtually.
Have a blessed week and enjoy your Purim preparations.
This post is prepared for you by Shoshanah Shear of Chessed Ve'Emet
