A poster calling to our brothers world-wide, it is a time of battle for our freedom. Our brothers in Russia cry out, they are in terrible distress. Regarding supplying matza for the Passover holiday for hundreds of thousands of families. The reason for their concern is the great poverty among our Russian brethren. And this year, in addition, there is a terrible drought in Russia.

Our brothers, a question which every Jew must answer: Shall we all bear, G-d forbid, the terrible stigma, that we, all of the Jews living outside of Russia, saw the distress of our brothers and sisters and didn't come to their aid? Brothers, shall we rest on our laurels?

Every Jew must make a donation to "Maos Chitim l'Yehudei Russia." Every Rabbi must organize a committee for this purpose. Pay heed, everyone should quickly bring their donation for this great cause, hurry, don't delay!
