While many people spend a lot of time, effort and money on the mitzvah of mishloach manos, the Rambam rules that it is better to spend more on matanos l’evyonim than on mishloach manos and the other mitzvos of the day.
The mitzvah of matanos l’evyonim defines Purim. It brings joy to those who lack it most – the poor and downtrodden.
Ezras Yisroel families are referred by community rabbonim who know them personally. Widows, Torah scholars, families in crisis – if there is a family in need in your neighborhood, Ezras Yisroel likely is sending them matanos l’evyonim. In addition, Ezras Yisroel distributes all matanos l’evyonimon the day of Purim – bob’yom - regardless of when the donation was made.
When you give matanos l’evyonimthrough Ezras Yisroel, you fulfill your obligation and bring joy to hundreds of families.
