I have some money that I would like to spend for Chanukah presents for kids if their parents can not afford at this time. Please let me know if you are interested. I will order and ship straight to your house.

That is so nice!
Thank you for restoring my faith in the women on this site. Last night I was kind of done.

Tizku Li'mitzvot!

Wishing you and your family a wonderful Chanukah. May Hashem answer your tifillot and may you be zoche to always be on the giving end.

Wow. Mi kaamcha yisrael. My son has been begging for the entire toys 4 you catalog but I can't afford more than a few shmuntzas from the dollar store this year.

There’s always going to be someone poorer. And the Torah promises that there will always be poor people, so the mitzvah of tzedakah can always be done. I don’t see why you shouldn’t bring your child a bit of healthy Chanukah joy just because there are starving children in Africa.

And What an amazing post OP!!!

Tomchei shabbos in my area collects for a chanuka toy drive, maybe yours does too.

Just wondering if it’s a better way to avoid someone who doesn’t need taking advantage of your amazing generous offer.

We B"H manage to finish the month without debt and somehow fund unexpected expenses, it's just that those unexpected expenses together with our regular bills don't leave money right now for extras.

I'm sure there's a yiddishe family who can't even afford to spend a few dollars on jelly donuts (here they can go 4 for 10NIS) who could use the gift more, that's all.

If any of you want to take advantage of Mommy3b2c’s generosity, but don’t want to out yourself to her (perhaps because you also live in Brooklyn and may meet her), I’m in Baltimore and you can PM me. I’ll pass your address to Mommy3b2c without your username. Many of you know me from Instagram, and if once followed me a while, trust me. Or you can email me anonymously chayabraunphotography@gmail.com

Let me know what he wants. You can post an email and stay anonymous.

I prefer to give to specific people. If someone is a cheater, that’s their problem not mine.
