Dear Friends,
Yesterday was a national day of giving called, #GivingTuesday, and if your inbox was like mine, most of the emails were from charitable organizations seeking to find support. This wonderful new forum for charitable contributions serves to remind us that as a community, we can do more together than we can ever do alone.
Yesterday’s internet based giving platform provided us with an opportunity to focus our philanthropic efforts toward the causes that inspire us toward a more just and compassionate world. It also served to remind us that together we can generate positive changes at home and across the world.
In a way, #GivingTuesday, also serves as a kick-off for the HCRJ Mitzvah Day, which is taking place this Sunday. As #GivingTuesday has ignited desire to help make a difference, we are primed to invest time and energy into the process of tikkun olam (repairing the world).
Join us on Sunday morning, December 3 for Mitzvah Day. Together we can make a difference.
L’Shalom,
Steve
