Suggestion #2:

Don’t rush to redd shidduchim to fresh from sem girls. I have no problem if the girls and their parents try their utmost to get married. They could and should without worrying about the greater problem. “chayecha kodeim”.

BUT, the rest of us should NOT be helping them. We should be helping the girls who need it more (21-24).

What right does an outsider (typical shadchan who is not an immediate familey heter and therefore has no heter of “mibisarcha lo tisalem”) have to go redd a shidduch to a 19 yr old girl when the shidduch could just as well been redd to a 22 yr old?

Would you give tzedaka to a less needy person when a more needy person needs it at the same time?
