"No food ever goes to waste," Luger said. mmunity Calling On Everyone Yad Ezra serves more clients than its founders ever thought possi- ble, president Finkel said. "But, the better our efforts are, the more clients there are. So there's always a need for more contribu- tions." "Poverty and hunger aren't going to go away:' said Rabbi A. Irving Schnipper, an early Yad Ezra supporter and fundraiser. "When there's a disaster, there's an outpouring of concern. But it shouldn't have to take a national commandment to help the less fortunate. "Yad Ezra has many generous contributors, but periodically it doesn't hurt to send a reminder that we have to do the right thing — because really, I am my broth- er's keeper!" Quoting from the Yom Kippur haftorah, Rabbi Schnipper said: "Share your bread with the hun- gry; take the homeless into your home; clothe the naked ... Do not turn away from people in need!" ❑ Discover our unique community. .
