Mazal Tov! Greenie's daughter is getting married!

A wedding is a joyous occasion, but we all know how stressful it can be. This wedding needs your help more than most: it is less than a month away, but the kallah does not have a dress, caterer or even a hall.

Money is tight for everyone these days, but Greenie is having an especially tough time. Even the basics, like food, electricity, and toilet paper, are sometimes in short supply. She really has no money to make a wedding, and she needs all our help.

I know you have many worthy causes that you give to, but this one is for a good friend of ours, so please open your heart and help Greenie make this chassunah extra special. This is a chance to do the mitzva of hachnosas kallah in an immediate way that will make a real difference to someone we know and love!


Here's an online link for your donation: http://www.gofundme.com/hhhxdc

If you prefer, you can message me and I will give you my address for a check and I will forward everything, including your good wishes, to Greenfire.

Tizku Lemitzvos!

Thank you Marina for setting this up! I have been checking imamother for such a thread ever since Greenfire started her thread last week! Greenie, mazal tov! I am delighted to be able to contribute towards your wedding costs, wishing you only simchas!

I should clarify that this wasn't actually my idea. Another imamother member messaged me and asked if we should set this up.

I donated. You should have a lot of nachas from the couple and your other kiddies and only simchos and health.

On another thread someone suggested we view these donations as wedding gifts. I love this idea!

All of us may not be able to come to this wedding, but we can all give a gift that will help this couple have a very special day!
