I have been davening with all my heart for little Ruchama Aliza and wanted to find an appropriate tzedakah to make a contribution on her behalf.
Two nights ago I read the following from “Chofetz Chaim: Loving Kindness,” Artscroll, p.346: “The Chofetz Chaim, citing the Shulchan Aruch Yoreh De’ah (Siman 256:15), says that if the treasurer of a charity has money that is not earmarked for a particular cause, HIS FIRST PRIORITY should be to provide for the wedding needs of a poor or orphaned girl; THERE IS NO GREATER CHARITY.”
Not coincidentally, I noticed just such a charity organization whose advertisement is on this very page: Simchat Tzion (presently on the right side, 7th ad from the top). Might I suggest clicking on their ad and making a contribution for a refuah shlaima for Ruchama Aliza…and may the Ribbono Shel Olam have rachmanis on this sweet little girl, her family, and the entirety of Klal Yisrael in the zchus of all our prayers and tzedakah on her behalf.

Anybody know how she is doing?
Comment by specialdad2004 — August 29, 2007 @ 10:48 pm
Latest I heard is that her body is B”H getting stronger (heart), but R”L there’s still no brain activity. Please keep your tefillos coming.

I live in Michigan, and this evening I watched my local news report the story of Aliza. I cannot express to you the enormous amount of sorrow I feel within my whole being, for Aliza and her entire family.
I am a Christian who believes in humanity and compassion. I reach out to Aliza and her family in thought and prayer. I know that prayers are answered, and I am hoping upon hope that God grants this beautiful child the miracle of life once more. I will continue to pray for a miracle for precious Aliza, and I will continue to pray for strength within her family.
