Please note this is not for organizations but rather for you or someone you know that personally needs tzedka.

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)

I just remembered I once got a $50 coupon code for a charity from a DD post. They emailed me the code but I never used it. Can anyone guide me to the promo so I can search my emails for it to donate? Thanks

Seems that quoting, cuts part of the link, and thus no longer valid.
I'll post it outside the quote.
I was already wondering, as I'm copy pasting after all...

"Unfortunately due to Shmuel's health conditions, he was unable to obtain life insurance. These last few years have been especially difficult for them because both he and his wife were unable to work as they did everything they could to focus on his health and care.
Due to this, they are behind on bills, and are very financially strained.
This fundraiser will give his dear wife, Nava, a chance to mourn the loss of her husband without the stress of wondering how she will cover their medical debt, rent, and bills."

I have a close friend who has been dealing with some mental health issues lately (doctors are involved). Aside from the expenses associated with these struggles, he had to get a new job in a different field because of this. The family was already struggling financially, and this hasn't helped anything.

I'm matching anything I can raise. Tax deductible donations can be made through Zelle or PayPal to chabadfoodfund@gmail.com.

Please put "DD Family" in the memo so the donation can be earmarked for this family, and send me a PM so I know to match the funds.

TYVMIA, and tizku l'mitzvos!

https://thechesedfund.com/traumatreatmentfund/trauma-treatment

What can I say?
I know this person personally, and can fully and wholeheartedly vouch for this cause.
Their pain and trauma is too real, and my words won't do justice, so please read their own.

Thorough and guided research has been done to find the proper trauma treatment, and the only thing holding up the beginning of therapy are the funds.

Tonight is Purim, please open your hearts, and if you can, share this with others.

It would really mean the world to me.
I don't say that lightly.

Thank you!

Update:
As you can read on the page, they have gone to the treatment center, and BH it has been a huge step in the healing process.

(The first update is at the bottom of the page, the second one is at the top.)
https://thechesedfund.com/traumatreatmentfund/trauma-treatment

The next step is continuing in an iop (intense outpatient) treatment center for another couple months.

BH an extraordinarily kind, supportive person has committed to double donations to the current goal of $87,900. Right now, they're holding at $62,738.

Everything helps and adds up, and so does sharing further.
Thank you for opening your heart.

Please be a partner in this lifesaving journey:

My son's friend is getting married this week. He is the oldest of 12 children. His father is a sofer and works very hard to support his family. They live in a tiny apartment in Eretz Yisrael. This chosson is a tzadik. He knows his father already has debts and doesn't have the heart to let his father carry the burden of paying for his chasunah alone. He wakes up early mornings and goes around to shuls to collect money to help his father pay all the mounting bills that are piling up. I know this must be excruciatingly painful for him as he is a refined quite person by nature. Please help this noble chosson get to his chuppah with a joyous heart.

All donations are US tax deductible:

This is a relative of mine (and at least one other ddfer here)

A mother of 11 children, foster mother of another 3, under the threat of imprisonment!

 They have been the shluchim to Vilnius, Lithuania for the past 28 year, giving their heart and soul to their community notwithstanding the difficulties they continue to face.
With perversion of justice, there are those that want her to in jail. The hearing is 8 Shevat.
Please open your hearts to support them during this crazy time, and help them weather it successfully!
