Money for Food for Pesach

I received this by email, via Aish.com (they spam their mailing list on behalf of others), from Keren Yehoshua V'Yisroel:

ONLY YOU CAN ANSWER THE FIFTH QUESTION

At the Pesach Seder children all over the world will be asking the four questions: "Why is this night different than other nights?"

Thousands of children in Eretz Yisroel will be asking a fifth question: "Why must we be different from other families, because we don't have enough money for the holiday?"

The severe cuts in government support and the sharp rise in the price of basic foods (25% rise for a loaf of bread) have made this question a painful challenge for all caring Jews. Only you can answer this question. Your response will enable hundreds of families in the Holy Land to join you in enjoying a Kosher and Happy Pesach.

Small family - $180, Medium family - $360, Large family - $ 540,
6 small families - $ 1080, 4 medium families - $ 1440,
5 medium families - $ 1800, 4 large families - $ 2160.


Interesting metric for the price of basic foods (the price of a loaf of bread) given that this is an appeal for Pesach. Anyway, check 'em out.
