The reward that you get for giving
is that you're a giver. We have over
24,000 Jews from 51 countries. We're all
giving at least $1 of tzedakah together
every day. [music] Not many people can
give $9 million a year. Hashem made it
so hard for us to give. We work so hard
for our money. Now, except for
Shlomo's easy for him to give. He loves
to give.
>> My brother had a birthday and he really
wanted this calculator watch. So, I
bought it for him and I think like
within an hour or two it broke. Before
he even realized, I went back to the
store and I bought him a second one.
That felt so good. That's probably my
first experience [music] of really
enjoying giving. To me, that's still
exciting.
>> I put a dollar in the tzedakah box just
like we all have Who knows how many
times in our lives. I was like, "Wow,
what a deal. Commit tzedakah for a buck?
How can I guarantee that I'm giving
tzedakah every single day no matter what
for a dollar?" That was the idea that
popped into my head. I thought I had a
billion-dollar idea. We've given out
over $34 million in the first [music] 7
1/2 years since we started. We fundraise
our entire overhead separately. So, 100
cents of your dollar goes to charity
every single day. So, it's not the
dollar, it's the daily. Before you know
it, you're like, "Oh my gosh, I'm a
giver."
