Elul, Tzedakah, and Helping Our Brothers and Sisters

A community appeal from Rabbi Sariel Malitzky (Congregation Ohr Torah) encouraging members to increase tzedakah donations during Elul. The message emphasizes that charitable giving demonstrates commitment to the broader community and Hashem. It highlights ways donations help: shelter for those in need, yeshiva education for young people, support for those studying in Eretz Yisrael, food assistance, rent support, mental health therapy, tutoring for struggling students, and more. The rabbi calls on congregants to give generously as Rosh Hashanah approaches. Donation methods listed: Zelle (Payohrtorah@gmail.com, note RTF RH), check (payable to Congregation Ohr Torah, note RTF RH), or credit card via https://ohrtorah.net/rtf.
