If you are planning a trip to Israel this summer, please see the following item from the White Plains for Israel Action Committee

Dear Friends,

     We are all grateful that summer is here.  We hear that Jerusalem is filled with tourists . . . and that is where we need your help.

    The Mitzvah Messenger Project needs Mitzvah Messengers now, people who are willing to carry children clothing, toiletries for soldiers, wedding dresses to be lent to poor brides or gifts to hospitalized children to Jerusalem.

     We arrange everything.  We arrange for the item to be dropped off to the courier in a plastic garbage bag that can be easily opened and checked out for peace of mind.  We provide contact information via the internet so that the courier may arrange at a mutually convenient time to have the item picked up in Jerusalem.  We can even arrange for the Mitzvah Messenger to drop off the item personally to see the power of his or her Mitzvah work.

     Please pass this message on.  We can be reached at Chesed4Israel@aol.com.  All we need to know initially are the dates you'll be in Jerusalem and where you will be staying.

      All we ask is that you add this simple act of kindness when you make your plans to visit  Israel.

B'Shalom.
