Question
Every month I donate 30 NIS to a charity organization, and because of this I receive, every Erev Pesach, a gift package of vegetables and fruit (when I take the package I have to pay a symbolic amount). Am I allowed to give these 30 NIS each month from maaser money?
Thank you!
Thank you!
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
You are permitted to give this money from maaser funds.
The package that comes once a year is not considered payment in return for the donation, but rather encouragement to continue the standing order donation.
