The Power of Giving on Rosh Hashanah
The Jewish High Holidays are a season of compassion, reflection, and renewal. It is also a time when many choose to donate to sick children in Israel as an expression of care and solidarity.
As Rosh Hashanah marks the beginning of the New Year, the Jewish community awakens to the struggles of those in need. Families facing illness—especially those with children battling chronic or life-threatening conditions—need more than medical treatment. They need the strength and dignity that comes from a caring community.
Tzedakah: Justice Through Giving
At its heart, tzedakah is about justice and responsibility. Sick children in Israel should never have to endure their hardships alone. Parents do everything they can, but the weight of financial, emotional, and spiritual struggles is often overwhelming.
By choosing to donate to sick children in Israel, you extend a lifeline—ensuring families have food, clothing, and a supportive community standing beside them.
This Rosh Hashanah, while many families prepare holiday meals and set festive tables, more than 300 families battling illness face empty cupboards and hospital trays. Instead of dipping apples in honey for sweetness, they are forced to choose between paying bills and putting food on the table.
Chesed: Loving-Kindness in Action
Chesed—loving-kindness—is the active expression of care.
