Three tin charity boxes.
* Interesting charity box from the Volunteer Trust Charity and Kindness Organization - Bugorshov Synagogue, Tel Aviv. With impressive illustration of a map of the Land of Israel and the words 'רחמנא לבא בעי', 'מתן בסתר יכפה אף', 'ציון במשפט תפדה' ['G-d desires the heart,' 'Charity given secretly will cover up anger,' 'Zion will be redeemed in justice']. 'תפקידנו להגיש עזרה חומרית ומוסרית לזקוקים מכובדים בהצנע לכת' [Our role is to modestly offer material and moral assistance to honorable and needy people] inscribed on the side. Rust marks at the top.
* Bank Leumi L'Yisrael savings-box for children - 'ילד נבון מתמיד בחסכון' ['A discerning child consistently saves']. With an illustration of a honeybee and the inscription 'נוער חוסך' [Youth Saves], and 'אגורה לאגורה מצטרפת לחשבון גדול' [One agora and then another adds up to a large amount'] and an illustration of a savings-box in the shape of a house. The box is full of the coins that were saved. Rust stains at the top.
* Charity box from the Chadera Yeshiva with inscriptions regarding its activities. Rust marks and lack in the text.
Overall moderate-fine condition.
