1) Maybe giving them money is helping them do something which you 
regularly complain about - chareidim not being able to support themselves.
2)  There are all sorts of huge mitzvot that people in chul do. That 
isn't the point.  The point is ""We must do whatever is possible to
further Mitzvot observance and prevent desecration of the Holy Land" - 
what does that mean?
