To our dear Etz Ahaim community,
The Daughters of Etz Ahaim would like to thank all those who donated to our Mishloach Manot this Purim. We sincerely appreciate your support and enthusiasm!
Thanks to your generosity, we're excited to announce that we'll be able to send $700 to a charity in Israel. We've chosen Chasdei Naomi—a nonprofit organization that assists Holocaust survivors, soldiers, and families in need—as the beneficiary.
May these good deeds carry us forward, and may we merit even more blessings as Pesah approaches!
