Chabad Donations, Reinvented: $1 a Day, a Different Community Every Day
When people search for how to donate to Chabad, they usually picture writing one check to one Chabad house. DollarDaily works differently: thousands of givers each contribute one dollar a day, and the pooled total goes to a different Chabad-Lubavitch community every single day of the year — from campus Chabad houses in America to shluchim rebuilding Jewish life in Ukraine, Africa and beyond.
One dollar. Every day. A year of giving reaches 365 different communities — places most donors would never have found on their own.
Where your Chabad donation actually goes
Every day has a named recipient on our public recipient calendar. The day's pooled donations go to that day's Chabad house or community project, and the impact map shows every place your dollars have reached — hundreds of communities across dozens of countries.
Recipients apply through a fund-request process, so each day of giving answers a real, current need: a mikvah under construction, a Hebrew school stipend, a community kitchen, a shliach getting through a hard season.
Why daily giving beats one big check
A dollar a day is tzedakah the way the Rambam describes it at its best — given constantly, so the habit of giving shapes the giver. It also spreads your support across the whole Chabad-Lubavitch world instead of concentrating it in one place, and it gives every recipient a day when the entire DollarDaily community shows up for them at once.
