(From the Yated magazine)<\/p>\n

Esther P. from Bnei Brak wishes to give honorary mention to a uniquely devoted group of volunteers<\/a>, who do not neglect those in need even on Erev Pesach. She\"\" “happened” to hear about the buzzing activity when she noticed a box at the doorway of a Bnei Brak family, filled with neatly stacked trays of cooked food for yom tov. <\/i>The sticker identified<\/a> it as being connected to Ezer Mizion. The woman of the household admitted that she serves as a way station for collecting freshly cooked food packages from families in her area, which are then picked up by a special driver and delivered to those in need and for the families of hospital patients.<\/p>\n

The demand for kosher le’Pesach<\/i> food comes to a head as Pesach approaches. At the height of the high-pressure Pesach preparations, women find the time and energy to stand in their kitchen<\/a> and prepare kosher le’Pesach <\/i>meals for needy families, carefully labeling the type of food, the kashrus<\/i> supervision, and whether the food is sheruya <\/i>(gebrokht<\/i>) or contains kitniyot<\/i> (legumes)…<\/p>\n

This amazing chesed <\/i>operation continues for the length of the yom tov. <\/i>In the midst of hosting guests and heavy work in the kitchen, the volunteers continue<\/a> to think about others. On Chol Hamoed<\/i>, another collection is made, meant for Shabbos Chol Hamoed<\/i> and Shvi’i shel Pesach. <\/i>May the women participating in this unbelievable project be blessed, along with Ezer Mizion as a whole…!<\/p>\n
