There Is No Excuse Not To Do KIRUV

what if a person wants to donate so badly for the sake of K and helping the RS organization does that mean that I don't have the Merit to do kiru how can I get merits uh well if somebody wants to donate for to the organization uh everyone can donate something everyone could donate something I don't believe that there's a single person here that's watching my lecture now or tomorrow or next year that cannot donate to the organization and if you tell me you can you're a liar why not saying you specifically anyone that says no why because I have people that live in Africa in Africa I have people that live in India in all types of places where they literally live in a third world country or at least their area third world but you'll still see from time to time on Facebook and on YouTube and of course you're not going to see what happens when they sent to me on other ways like PayPal and on the website but you'll see publicly that they'll donate $5 $4 $10 and guess what I value those donations no less than if somebody sent me 10,000 or 100,000 tomorrow why because I know those people they're doing the best they can they don't have 10,000 in the bank and they're only donating $10 they have I don't know maybe $50 in the bank and they're donating $5 so if they can donate certainly everyone that could afford the internet needless to say a smartphone could also donate how much you can donate is a different story but many times I see that there are people that they believe they can't donate because they want to donate a lot and since they can't donate a lot they just decide might as well not donate at all this is a advice that you're from the Satan Satan is telling you if you can't donate a lot don't donate at all a person has to do the best they can the best they can if you're donating 10% of your income whether your income is $1,000 or $10,000 it's still 10% it's still 10% and guess what it's counted as 10% in the eyes of but if a person is donating 1% or half a percent or 0.1% then of course hasem also sees that point is is that it's all based on how much a person can actually do can actually do now one thing I would suggest and actually request from any of you that are not able to afford you know larger amounts of money of let's say $50 or more at a time and you could only afford let's say $5 or or or $10 at a time my recommendation to you is to donate you know uh a instead of donating let's say every week $5 or $10 or in some cases I see some people donating $3 uh and two uh is to donate every couple of weeks or every month but a you know a larger sum where instead of donating every time doing it once a month why because the fees from the merchant Banks all of them whether it's PayPal or flip cards or it's everyone all of them the the transaction fees have a minimum requirement number one and number two it's also operational cost for us we have you know bookkeepers and employees that have to uh put all of this stuff into a system so it takes time so whether it's a transaction of $10,000 or $10 it takes just as much time so if you really are truly looking to help us it's better for you to make less transactions with more money meaning instead of $5 four times a month donate $20 one time a month that's something that could certainly help but either way back to the point at end which is donation somebody wants to donate if they truly want to donate they'll find a way they'll find a way now if somebody is stretched to literally to the Moon they're living in debt they can barely afford rent they could barely afford uh you know getting Shabbat together and they don't have to donate but they really really want to donate they can still donate how simple number one they have friends they have family they have colleagues they have neighbors they have a community go to those people and ask them to donate to our organization and guess what they will appreciate it why cuz everyone wants to donate to a good place so if you tell them listen this is a good place I know the place that they do good things guess what people are always looking for good places and usually you get more donations from those types of people then you get even from the person that uh donated themselves why because those people they donate to a bunch of places but they don't really know who's good but if you're vouching for a place a good place that's already going to help them and all of the money that they donate goes to your account also your spiritual account also in fact you even get a bigger award than they do so if you truly want to help us or anyone else out there go and collect money for them go and get people to donate even help them with the donation help them uh you know whatever it is process the donation online write a check whatever it is go out there and collect the money and plenty of people do it in all communities Jews and non-jews and it's not so uh difficult now if you say no but I'm embarrassed okay so you're not uh you're not really as motivated as uh uh as as you thought you were You're motivated if you had it if it was convenient for you now the other thing that a person can do is if they don't have money to donate and they don't have the courage or or the ability or you know to get from other people or they simply live in a desert and they don't have any friends they don't have any family they don't have any neighbors they don't have any Community their only Community is a bunch of scorpions and snakes they live in the middle of the World by themselves but they to help then they need to get some of the lectures that we have and share it with people if they live in a community with people not in a desert they can get some of the material the Kyu cards like this get these Kyu cards especially right now next week we're starting shim get these K cards for tuna bre cards this is the auspicious time starts next week for doing T and give them out in the community you can get them from our kir store for free go to kir store.org and you get these cards for free go give them out to people put them in the mailbox put them in the uh in their hand put them in the Jewish restaurants put them uh wherever you can put them put them everywhere in as many places as possible and at the very least you're using your time to do it but if you say I don't have any money I don't know anybody or I don't want to talk to anybody and I also don't want to give any any any anything out then the truth is that you really don't want to give unless the giving is uh in in your uh with your conditions and that's not really desired to give so again I'm not talking to anyone specific who wants to give who doesn't want to give I'm telling you guys that all of these different things are things that are uh uh i s i I say to people all the time when they ask the same type of question whether it's privately or otherwise is that there there's always a way to help us there's always a way to help us there are even some people that uh you know that help us with their skills they have technological skills so they help us with their technological skills either making videos making posters uh helping with uh different things so some people volunteer with subtitles different things other people we have uh you know help us uh with with other skills that they have whatever the way they can they do point is that there's always a way to give if you really want to give there's a way to give if you're not giving it's because you don't want to give now one thing I will say is that you know for since we're already mentioning all of this is that there are some of you that are in touch with me more often than others some of you watch my lectures and maybe once or twice a year you send a question others send a question at least once or twice a day now you have a much bigger responsibility to give and to help us than others why you benefit more you benefit more simple if you're watching a lecture once a year versus someone that's watching every lecture obviously the one that's watching every lecture benefits more if you're watching every lecture and you only ask one question a year versus one that's watching every lecture and ask questions every day obviously the letter has a bigger responsibility to give and hates people that are ungrateful and one thing that I have to say is that there have been times where people are so spiritually stupid that they literally ask me a question about their donations to other places where they'll tell me listen Rabbi just donated $2,000 to local kabad do you think it was a good donation and again if this person was giving something of the same or more to us you know whatever he wants to donate there by all means I don't think it's an appropriate question to ask different organization but nonetheless it's no problem but when a person doesn't donate a penny to you even though calls you their Rabbi says you're the best you changed my life but all of their donations goes to their local synagogue this is a person that's spiritually stupid you have to cry for them I'm I'm almost considered fasting for them because they're in such a bad condition so again make sure when you guys are watching the lectures that you guys really listen and apply some of these things to your life and really evaluate yourselves where where do I stand am I really you know someone that can benefit from this to apply this to my life am I am I good am I you know everybody has to apply this I when I talk and I and I teach I also talk to myself I evaluate myself I know that I have a lot of work to do now it may not be the same level of work as someone that's new needs to do that I already did but I myself also have a lot of work to do everyone does so a person needs to know that I could knows what's in your heart he knows what's in your mind that's one of our 13 principles of Faith so if you are a grateful person then Hashem knows it because you are practicing gratitude if you are an ungrateful person Hashem also knows that Hashem also knows that because you're practicing lack of gratitude and if a person is really ungrateful but pretends to be grateful but just says they can't really act on the Gratitude then you should know you're only fooling yourself you may be fooling the uh different people around you but still knows the truth so every person that really wants to give can find a way to give how much you should give it depends what kind of Eternity you want to have if you want to have you know heaven but like a little homeless heaven like a little Shack in heaven just pretty much much as long as you're not in G then help as little as possible rely on your MIT to get you to heaven if you want to have a very big heaven then help as much as possible how much is as much as possible literally as much as possible as much as possible if you're able to help every day help every day if you're able to help uh you know a uh every minute help every minute whatever you can do and I can assure you no one has ever lost as a result of publicizing a name is Tora and I I am living proof of it weit to have countless students du cha over the years and the investors behind us that have helped us those people have no idea how profitable their portfolio is and that's why I tell everybody to invest as much as possible as much as they can [Music]
