Three ways to give Matanot L'Evyonim (Giving to the poor):

1) Give in Shul on Purim day

2) Give on Purim day to Harvey Kornblum Jewish Food Pantry

3) Donate to Rabbi Arnow's discretionary fund before Purim and note that it is for Matanot L'Evyonim.

Kol Rinah has a proud tradition of Mishloach Manot, which literally means "sending of portions," more easily called a Purim basket! These are gifts  of food or drink that are sent to family, friends and others to celebrate the holiday of Purim. Mishloach manot is a mitzvah meant to ensure that everyone has enough food for Purim, and to foster love and friendship among Jews and their neighbors.
