The word “team” is an acronym for “Together Everyone Achieves More.” One powerful example of this is DollarDaily.org, where one dollar daily pledges are made to benefit shluchim around the world.
With just a click, you become part of an international team that gives a shliach somewhere in the world an extra boost of much needed financial aid and support. At present, more than 330 people are giving $1 a day, so that every day, another Chabad House around the world is getting a $330 donation.
The premise of DollarDaily.org is simple, but brilliant: just pledge one dollar a day and it will be sent to help shluchim pay a tuition bill, help a student buy a pair of Tefillin, or maybe some extra help at home so the Shlucha can catch her breath.
Recently, DollarDaily passed a major milestone: $60,000 given in donations to over 225 Chabad Houses around the world. Incredibly, it all came from one dollar donations, made by donors who love what the shluchim do day in day out.
“In today’s world, $60,000 is not considered major money. But if you think about it in terms of one dollar, it is staggering!” said Yosef Shidler, founder of DollarDaily. “One dollar may seem insignificant, but it really adds up! It’s an incredible display of achdus across communities.”
One dollar is a humble enough donation for many to make without a pang, but all those one dollars added together create something wonderful.
“It’s just incredible to receive a donation out of the blue,” said Rabbi B. G. a shliach in New York. “Knowing that there are even that many people in anash who are sending these dollars shows us that we are supported and that people really care. It really shows how chassidim zeinin ain mishpacha. Aside from the money, which of course, is always helpful, the warmth and support we feel are worth their weight in gold.”
Signing up for DollarDaily is simple: click on the link and select a monthly or annual pledge, of which every dollar goes directly to shluchim.
“It’s a great feeling,” said Mendy C, a DollarDaily subscriber. “It is so important to support our shluchim who are out there on the frontlines, doing the Rebbe’s work. DollarDaily makes it so easy and convenient, especially since they give to shluchim worldwide that I would never have otherwise had the opportunity to help.”
