Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) female students have been enlisted to collect donations for individuals evading military service. The initiative, which involves students from Haredi educational institutions, allows school administrators to monitor their fundraising performance. This method of recruitment and tracking has raised questions within the community.

The program aims to encourage charitable giving while also providing a structured way for students to participate in community outreach. Administrators will reportedly have access to data on the students' success in collecting funds, potentially influencing future participation or educational focus.

Details regarding the specific organizations benefiting from these donations or the exact nature of the tracking mechanism remain unclear. The involvement of minors in such fundraising activities, particularly those related to military service evasion, highlights a complex intersection of religious education, community values, and civic responsibilities within the Haredi sector.
