Purim Project
Purim Project is web-based software and a comprehensive service used by temples and schools to run a unique community-engaging fundraising project. Purim fundraising projects are a great opportunity to raise funds and provide a much appreciated service to members. The organization (e.g. temple or school) sends a member list to each and every member of the organization. Each member is asked to select members from the list that they wish to send their Happy Purim wishes to. The organization receives a donation for each member selected. The list is then automatically compiled to generate unique letters to each member family, wishing them a Happy Purim and indicating in the letter which families chose to send their blessings. Typically the organization will prepare Mishloach Manoד baskets, one for each family, to go along with the Happy Purim letters.

“PURIM SHUTTLE” FUNDRAISER 2020
Dear ,
The holiday of Purim will be celebrated on Tuesday, March 10, 2020. On this
joyous day it is a Mitzvah to give food gifts to friends. These gifts
have been traditionally known as Mishloach Manot or Shalach Manot since
the days of Mordechai and Esther.
WHAT: Take advantage of Chabad's Purim Shuttle Fundraiser. Volunteers
will deliver Shalach Manot packages to the listed members of the New
Orleans Jewish community.

compose individual or generic greetings for the recipients. Your name will
already be listed in greeting, only add your wishes.
Please note:* Your name will not appear on the recipient list displayed
when you log on to your account.*
Basic Option: $7 per recipient. Your name and greeting (can be
customized) will be included on a card that accompanies the gift
indicating *all

Your name will be included in the greeting - if you are customizing the
greeting there is no need to repeat your name.
OUT OF NOLA: Friends on the list who live *out of the New Orleans metro
area* can be selected and will receive a Purim Shuttle card indicating
the friends that selected them.
Reciprocity option: $8 per recipient. When you check this option, if
someone includes you in their order, we will automatically include them on
your order if you have not already done so. This ensures that even if you
have forgotten to include someone, we will do it for you!
Additional packages: $20 per recipient. You may order additional packages
to be delivered to someone in the New Orleans area that is not on the list.
Package Deal: $250 – allows you to select as many recipients as you wish
from the list, *provided that they are already receiving from someone
else. *If not, the cost will be the standard $7 per recipient.

supporting the valuable work of Chabad in our community. Receiving this
lovely Purim gift of kosher goodies will delight friends and family. This
is an excellent way to unite the Jewish community as is appropriate on a
Jewish holiday.
