Question

My friend collected a donation from me for his Talmud Torah on Purim, and I undertook to give 170 NIS, but in practice a lower amount was debited from my account. Am I obligated to contact him and complete the amount as a mitzvah‑vow, or not?

Answer

Shalom u’vracha.

This is considered a mitzvah‑vow, and you must approach them and pay the missing amount.
