Personal Tzadaka/Charity Master Thread

Ikar mitzva of tzedaka is עניים, Not to take away from other worthy causes, or the טובת הנאה of the fiver, but definitely worth keeping in mind.

Some people I spoke to will be giving in a way that works better for their tax purposes.

The online campaign is tax-exempt. If someone wants name of the fund and address to send check please PM me.

Some business owners have better ways to get top line deductions in this case than just giving to a tax exempt organization.

B"H got a pledge for 5k!! They'll be sending a check (so it won't show on the campaign page).

If I can do it, you can too!!

Reach out to friends, family and acquaintances who have the ability to to give in the 4/5 digits and let it be written/spoken from your heart!! They will give!! Who can turn down such a cause?!

[menachem]

I fully agree.

When I made the phone calls to verify that the money being raised is indeed going 100% to the family, I actually also criticized the number of $320,000 as being too low given the circumstances. I was given an explanation as to why they low-balled it, which I cannot argue with, but I think we here at ddf/dansdeals should all get together and make sure they actually raise $500,000 or more!

Adding to the donation that it's in honor of DDF/Dansdeals can only do good for everyone, as it will encourage more giving, and will reflect positively on this community.

You'll notice that a few thousand came in today ~ I got someone to reach out to others and they donated ~ over $2,000 collectively!

Chevra, the least we can do for the 9 orphans is to help them with financial stability, so their father can care for them and not be busy with financial woes!!

Let's do this TOGETHER! It's a great Mitzvah and will help out the family tremendously!!

Thanks to @menachem for getting a very special yungerman to offer matching funds.

Please continue to give at https://thechesedfund.com/cause/friedns-for-dvorahle and spread the word. There's someone matching dollar for dollar!

Don't pay attention to the goal that was set. Keep in mind that the widower was working 12-14 hours a day (not because he's a workaholic, but out of necessity) before his wife got sick. He has young kids at home. The right thing to do would be to enable him to cut down his work hours very significantly, so he can be there for his kids. Every dollar help, and a lot is needed.

Guys,

I don't know this family personally. I don't even know anyone in crown heights.
ExGingi told me about this campaign and explained the cause to me.
Right away it really hit home and I felt compelled to give way more than I normally would.
I usually don't like giving to these online campaigns because most of them are the same organizations running dramatic stories... This isn't being run by a marketing team, it's the real deal.
Now that someone is matching every dollar I plan on giving again and telling people about this.
Whoever is spearheading this is a tzadik.

Let's keep up the DDF effect, it's not every day that we have this opportunity to really make a difference.
