The girls of fourth and fifth grades at Lubavitch Educational Center in Miami, Florida worked hard to raise ‘Maos Chittim’ – charity for the needy – before Pesach.
The fourth graders organized a grand Chinese Auction, assigning each girl with a job, from creating the flyers, to soliciting donations, to selling the tickets and announcing the winners.
Through their efforts the 25 girls raised $1,150.
The fifth graders organized a raffle dividing the work between advertising, soliciting donated items and selling 1,400 tickets to raise $1,400.
The girls gave the $2,550 to a South Florida Kosher Store whose owner, Yitzie Spalter, added another 10% and then gave families vouchers to use for their Pesach shopping.
Many of the students donated their own money, and learned that they are all winners, even if they didn’t go home with prizes, because they all helped with this special mitzvah.
