A certificate is not enought. A database of only the Tzadakas and Collectors should be accessable to anyone on the internet.

This is truly a wonderful and important undertaking that hopefully will be “hooked into” by other communities and perhaps modelled upon by others. The era of “kol haposhet yad” is over because we are no longer dealing with “aniye e’richa” who we know. The difficult economic circumstances have created a need for mosdos as well as individuals in dire need. We as “rachmonim benei rachmonim” are pleased to help as long as we are dealing with ‘erlicher’ aniyim. In my shul there have been appeals every day for individuals in especially difficult situations. BUT there are the chalatans, the drug addicts collecting at chasonos and the ‘push in robbers’ or worse who have taken advantage of naive women at home. The system will hopefully help resolve these problems and enable us to give with confidence.
