TZEDAKAH is a Hebrew word commonly translated as “charity.”

One Jewish leader described tzedakah as having eight levels of charitable giving. The eighth and highest level of giving is described like this:

“The highest form of charity is to help sustain a person before they become impoverished by offering a substantial gift in a dignified manner, or by extending a suitable loan, or by helping them find employment or establish themselves in business so as to make it unnecessary for them to become dependent on others.”

Serve others in a way that helps them become self-reliant (or interdependent) and watch miracles happen for both you and them.
