Time for Zakat Ul-Fitr

Zakat ul-Fitr is charity given to the poor at the end of Ramadhan. Its purpose is to circulate wealth within the community, so that the poor can also be able to celebrate Eid at the end of Ramadhan. Every person is required to donate for Zakat ul-Fitr before the morning Eid prayer. Its best to give to the mosques as they know where it is needed the most.
Found this on Mobilize.org, how true is this?
