Send Gifts of Food on the Purim Holiday
On the Purim festival we emphasize the importance of Jewish unity and friendship by sending shaloch manos, gifts of food to friends. Send a gift of at least two kinds of ready-to-eat foods (for example, pastry, fruit, beverage, to at least one friend during the daytime of the Purim festival.It is proper that men send to men and women to women. Sending these gifts should be done through a third party. Children, in addition to sending their own gifts of food, make enthusiastic messengers.
Give Gifts to the Needy
on the Purim Festival
Concern for the needy is a year-round responsibility for the Jew. On the Purim holiday, particularly, it is a special mitzvah to remember the poor. Give charity to at least two, but preferably more, needy individuals on the Purim Festival, during the daytime.The mitzvah is best fulfilled by giving directly to the needy. If, however, you cannot find poor people, place at least several coins into pushkas (charity boxes). Even small children should fulfill this mitzvah.
