In the past, each SHACHARIT class raised tzedakah for a charity of their choosing. This year, we want to not only raise money, but raise awareness amongst our families and young people about the value and meaning of giving tzedakah to organizations personally important to our community. From now on tzedakah will be collected during Grades 3-5 T’Filah (family prayer) each week. There will be a tzedakah box at the back of the sanctuary and you are requested – at a level where you feel comfortable - to make a small gift when you arrive on Sunday mornings.
