When considering a cause, see http://mg.alhatorah.org/Vayikra/25.35 and pay special attention to Rashi!


"When he is well enough, he works; when he is incapacitated, his own people take care of him. And not in a poor and stingy way, but with a fine and large benevolence. His race is entitled to be called the most benevolent of all the races of men. A Jewish beggar is not impossible, perhaps; such a thing may exist, but there are few men that can say they have seen that spectacle. The Jew has been staged in many uncomplimentary forms, but, so far as I know, no dramatist has done him the injustice to stage him as a beggar. Whenever a Jew has real need to beg, his people save him from the necessity of doing it. The charitable institutions of the Jews are supported by Jewish money, and amply. The Jews make no noise about it; it is done quietly; they do not nag and pester and harass us for contributions; they give us peace, and set us an example — an example which we have not found ourselves able to follow; for by nature we are not free givers, and have to be patiently and persistently hunted down in the interest of the unfortunate."
-Mark Twain, Concerning the Jews (Harper's Monthly, 1899)

The 10 year old daughter of a close family member suddenly went into a coma with severe brain trauma, please help the parents of 5 cover their financials so that they can be there for their daughter. I confirmed with the family that this is legit, and that all the money will go directly to them.

Not sure if this is the right thread for this, but everyone here has been uplifted by their songs over many years. They BH have a very nice Kehilla in EY where all are welcome. They need help with supporting initiatives such as Yeshiva Ketana, Gedola, Kollelim, and several other Gemachim. I can personally vouch for this campaign. Any contribution is greatly appreciated!

PS: It may be a good idea to leave something in the notes signifying that it is from a DDF member. Thanks!

This is an urgent plea to you for help.

The only responsible way we can begin the coming school year is to ensure that our rebbies, teachers, and staff are paid up to date, they depend on this to put food on their tables.

After tuition and government funding the school will run at a deficit of $850,000 this coming year, not including approximately $300,000 of debt that is being carried over from previous years.

We have secured $250,000 in matching funds that were pledged on the condition that we raise an additional $270,000 from our community before school opens.

EVERY DOLLAR RAISED WILL BE MATCHED BY LOCAL DONORS

Please help us reach our goal by donating here:

Thank you for your support!!

As of 9/22/18, the current winning odds are 1 in 66 with only 72 hours until drawing (!!!).

Here's my raffle link:

A friend of mine is getting married soon with absolutely no money on either side, and they don't have the basic funds for the wedding.
Please PM me for a link.

Wow. Unfortunately this thread is too active...

I don't like ever asking anyone for help, but my very close family member passed away of cancer 3 years ago, and sadly left a lot of debt. He left behind an Almanah and 4 young Yesoimim.

He was very young and in his prime, and ran a successful business (If you ate at a place called Heimeshe Essen in Rechavia when you were in Israel, you ate at his place). Unfortunately when he got sick, the machlah struck very fast and he was hospitalized right away and passed away less than a year after the discovery. In that time, he couldn't run the business, and he accumulated a ton for debt to the suppliers, employees, and landlord.

There has been a tzaddik of a lawyer who has been fighting in court pro bono the past 3 years to allow the family to keep the house. He got the judge to arrange a settlement of around 750,000 Shekel to be paid within 30 days.

The family has been contributing what they could for these years, but it isn't enough.

To keep their house, the Almanah and Yesoimim have 30 days to raise this sum. Please try your best to take part of being mechazek an Almanah and 4 Yesoimim. In this zchus, may you be blessed with all that you need, בני, חיי, ומזוני.

Your donation will be gratefully received.

Thank you. I appreciate your help!
