Weekly Yesod Yosef Summery
B”H Yesod Yosef distributed Shabbos assistance to 18 poor families. One family was assisted under the Crisis Rescue Program.
Prayers by the Tzadikim
Donors were prayed for by the Kivarim of the holy Binayahu Ben Yehoyada, Rebbe Dosa ben Hurkonus, Binyamin HaTzadik.
This is aside from the name lists that are given along with each distribution and are likely to be mentioned by our recipients at many other Kivrei Tzadikim.
Weekly Tzedaka Torah
Every person is obligated to give charity as much as he can afford. Even a pauper who is sustained himself from charity, as long as he has a little of his own money and he does not do business transactions with them, and is therefore permitted to take himself from charity. Since he does not have a base amount that he makes profit from, nevertheless since he does have enough for his livelihood, he must give charity from they give him. And even if he can only give a small amount, he should not hold back, since his little amount is more important the a large amount given by a rich person. As our Sages of Bless Memory said; it says by the Olah animal sacrifice a ‘burning of pleasant fragrance’ and it says by the Olah bird sacrifice a ‘burning of pleasant fragrance’ and also by the Olah flour sacrifice a ‘burning of pleasant fragrance’. This comes to tell us, that regardless if one gives a lot or regardless if he gives a little as long as his intent is for his Father in Heaven. However a person that just has enough money for survival, does not have to give charity, since his survival comes before anyone else.
