cshapiro~ right off the bat– there’s an ad at the top our very own YWN’s home page: to Israel, free delivery to Yerushalayim.. check it out.. // sorry, I recycled my weekend papers already, but there certainly were ads– local & international listings.. Hamodia, Yateed, also all the local free Jewish papers & giveaway magazines should also have relevant info. g’luck! 🙂
Once you fulfill the mitzvah by giving to two people it doesn’t matter when you give to others. If you are sending to someone because you are extending a gesture go for it, it is a win win situation for all concerned.
i just checked them out…they seem a little pricey and im sure they will charge a lot to deliver it up north…i think ill just fill a box with american candy which i know she likes and send it to her school via the usps…
aries2756 — correct except the mitzva of Mishloach Manos is fulfilled by sending to only 1 person (and sending that one person 2 types of ready to eat food items.) Matanos Leevyonim is required to be given to 2 poor people.
m in Israel- In conjunction to what you said “and sending that one person 2 types of ready to eat food items” I would just like to add they should be of two different brachos.
