A Donation That Was Not Collected
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.
