By now, many people have already been charitable towards Israel's needs at this time of crisis; but as the war grinds on and becomes more intense, the needs of Israel and within Israel will become more intense. This is why Beth David is launching a congregational campaign to raise $10,000. Our campaign is being facilitated by the Jewish Federation and every dollar pledged will go directly to causes in Israel. Now is a time to say "Heneini / Here I am". Now is a time to do more. It was just three weeks ago on Yom Kippur that we professed belief in the power of tzedakah/charity. Now, each of us is asked to rise to the challenge of helping Beth David reach the goal of $10,000. It will be an achievable goal, maybe even surpassable, if each us acts now. Thank you.
