Australian Jewish Charity Can: "Tzedakah Box"

This is a South African charity box. Charity, called "tzedakah" in Hebrew, has its roots in the word for “justice” or “righteousness.”  Jewish tradition teaches that giving tzedakah is a religious imperative, even for those who have little to give. 

It is customary to place money in a tzedakah box just prior to Shabbat, holidays and other special occasions.  Keeping a tzedakah box at home facilitates this practice and teaches children the value of this "mitzvah", or divine obligation. Some households make a monthly or yearly family project of determining which worthy cause will be the recipient of their tzedakah.

Judaism is a religion in which people believe that there is one god (monotheism), the same god the Christians and Muslims worship, who created the universe and has a personal relationship with humans. The religion was founded in Israel about 4,000 years ago by Abraham, who entered into a covenant with God to follow the laws of God. Moses received the Jewish holy book from God. Scholars disagree about whether there is an afterlife. Jews are waiting for the Messiah who may bring about an afterlife.
