Tzedakah - Charity

More Than A Charitable Act

Topics: Mitzvah Campaign, The Rebbe's, Charity, Pushka

Tzedakah is more than a Charitable act. It is sharing with others what G-d in His kindness has given us.

RE: tzedaka

Teshuvah (repentance) and tefilah (prayer), together with tzedaka, are a surefire way of breaking all evil decrees.

Tzedakah; a complicated word

A very difficult word to put into context in English. Certainly as stated in this video we need to view Tzedakah as more than just 'charity' and I prefer the English translation to 'righteousness.'
Fantastic video clip, as are all educational offerings from Chabad.

The Deed: Tzedakah

Thanks for the helpful and inspiring instructional videos. I'm a Christian pastor trying to learn more about the Jewish roots of my faith. I thank G-d every day for Chadad.

Education

I spend many evenings at my computer watching and learning from the wonderful videos provided by Chabad. The work you're doing is so vital to my Jewish education. As a relative newcomer to Chabad of Chatsworth
and having never been a practicing Jewish male I feel it's important to say thank you. Keep up the good work.

This helps me to understand more about Torah in short clips. Keep up the good work.
