Machatzit HaShekel–The Battle Against Cheap Stingy and Evil Eye (19 Min)

The Mitzvah of Machatzit HaShekel is an opportunity for us to help the poor religious families we know in Israel. Each Machatzit HaShekel (lit. half HaShekel) is the equivalent of .33 of an ounce of Silver, which is approximately $6.00 per person (Example: Family of 5=$30). Some have the custom of giving 3x this because the word TeRumah appears three times in the verse dealing with Machatzit HaShekel (See Exodus 30:11-16) (Example: Family of 5=$90). We added $1 per person for processing/banking costs to transfer money to Israel.

If you want BeEzrat HaShem Inc. to give your Machatzit HaShekel to poor religious families we know in Israel, then you can Donate here. Deadline 14th of Adar (March 10th, 2020).
