Partners in Otzar Beit Din
I also believe there should be a Partners in Otzar Beit Din produce:
Sderot people, who are poor, for example, would get donations of coupons
for Otzar Beit Din produce. How? The coupons would be from people all
over Israel and outside of Israel, who have an interest in donating
money to Otzar Beit Din and in return getting monthly coupons to buy
produce. Instead of keeping the coupons, the monthly coupons would be
given to poor people in places like Sderot, Jerusalem, any and
everywhere in Israel.
Partners in Otzar Beit Din: There are only a handful of Otzar Beit Din
that I know of: Chofetz Chaim, Otzar HaAretz, Komemiyus, Beit Chiliya,
Kfar Gideon, Yesodot--and the Chareidi section of Otzar HaAretz that has
a Chareidi branch overseeing it under Rabbi Chaim Z. Malinowitz.
Anyhow, maybe all the Otzar Batei Din can get donations that come from
people not interested in really buying any produce--for reasons like the
donations are from people outside of Israel. Then Partners In Otzar Beit
Din will be just that: partners with one person donating coupons to the
other person as partners in produce during shmitta year... I think this
is a viable idea.
Maybe someone can run with it, or give it to Meir Panim or Hazon Yishaya?
Please give me feedback on this idea.
