The impulse towards acts of kindness and compassion is a universal language of the human heart. Our tradition elevates chesed as a cornerstone of our faith.

And Buddhist practice centers on the cultivation of Metta and Karuna for all.The understanding of Tzedakah as justice-based giving finds resonance in other traditions.
