Welcome back for another edJEWcation discussion. This week, we’re talking Tzedakah (or charity, for everyone who didn’t attend Hebrew school). In this conversation, we explore: The significance of charity in Judaism, Personal stories of giving The Torah’s perspective on charitable obligations The impact of charity on individuals and communities The historical context of philanthropic practices in Jewish communities Maimonides Eight (8) Levels of Charity Why small, daily acts of charity are better than less frequent, larger acts (even though you’re a mensch for both) The impact of giving beyond monetary contributions Links from the podcast: ChayaLeah’s grandparent's charity - CSSY Who gives and who doesn’t new segment (turns out it was 20/20 who did the segment, not John Stossel)
