THE C- PROJECT Volunteer your way

WHAT IS THE MEANING OF C-PROJECT? C-Project stands for Chesed project Chesed is the Hebrew word for loving- kindness "The world is built with Chesed." (Psalms 89:3) "Chesed is wonderful because when you do Chesed, our Rabbis tell us, you benefit too. You get something back.” Chesed is a central Jewish value which leads to many Mitzvot. One of the best ways to fulfill this is by helping those in need.

THE IDEA Many young adults in our community have a similar wish: TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN PEOPLE’S LIVES. Each person likes to volunteer in different ways. Example: help the poor, the sick, the young and old. We all have our own way of sharing with the world. The C- Project was created so that each individual can express their giving in their unique way and whatever they enjoy helping the most.

FIND WHAT FULFILLS YOU … We have now promoted over 10 different organizations that are in need of volunteers. Examples: Chai Lifeline WIZO Tomchei Shabbos Bikkur Cholim Safra Women’s Group Dror for the Wounded
