Humane Jewish, Jews - kindness & humanity for all!

Jewish Donations to Humanitarian Causes

According to research conducted by the non-profit Institute for Jewish and Community Research, 25 percent of the largest donations that are received by educational institutions are from Jewish donors. More than 70 percent of grants that Jewish foundations make for humanitarian needs go to non-Jewish causes. Tzedakah as a Jewish ethical and religious principle has a profound effect not only on the survival and success of Jewish charities, but upon the health of North American humanitarian causes in general.

“The highest form of charity is to take a poor person into partnership”



Jewish traditions teach us to see the world globally in ever-widening ripples of responsibility. Our family lies closest to us, our community next, and so on. Tzedek believes that the ripples don’t stop rippling at a certain point beyond which we have no responsibility. Our belief in Tikkun Olam, repairing of the world, stretches beyond racial or religious boundaries.

Bostoner Rebbe, the ultimate bridge builder10 Dec 2009 … The Rebbe had no formula for reaching out and touching people.

[...]

He redoubled his efforts on behalf of the ill through ROFEH (Reaching Out — Furnishing Emergency Healthcare). He and the rebbetzin had always taken in the sick, but now he hired a staff and raised funds to buy apartments so that more people, for longer periods of time, could receive medical treatment in Boston. He galvanized volunteers — this one, a driver, that one, a translator, a third one, a medical contact person. This free service was (and remains) for Jews, observant and non-observant, and for non-Jews. The mitzvah is to save a life, anybody’s life, the Rebbe said.

Israeli – Palestinian Relationship… Hadassah treats all people, regardless of ethnicity or religion. In fact at the start of the recent cycle of violence, HMO Director, Professor Avi Israeli, extended Hadassah’s assistance to several local Arab hospitals, including to Al-Makasid hospital in East Jerusalem.



Last week, a top ranking Palestinian official brought his son to Hadassah Hospital for treatment of meningitis.



Hadassah continues to receive inquiries from the American Red Cross about treating injured Palestinian children from the West Bank and Gaza Strip. If the parents agree to treatment, HMO will arrange for transportation and provide treatment.
