Lynne posted in the comments of the previous post, and also in an email -- but I wanted to post it here as well, an idea for bringing hostess gifts of tzedakah to our Shabbat dinner:

as you know, sderot is truly a city under siege. its 24,000 residents are under constant DAILY bombardment...from THOUSANDS of rocket attacks. we can help by ordering hostess gift boxes of cookies from the sderot bakery. they cost 20 shekels each --about $5---and they will be delivered to our hotel before shabbos on february 15. then we will have great gifts to bring to our host families and we will be helping a sderot business as well.
Here's a link to the organization setting this up (is this what you found, Lynne?)
Here's a link to another post describing this mitzvah project.
It sounds like everyone wants to do this one, so let's see how far in advance we have to order (I bet we can wait til our February 4th meeting)...
