Choose your giftDaily Tzedakah: The Habit That Changes the Giver Too
The Rambam teaches that giving one coin a thousand times shapes a person more than a thousand coins given once — constancy is the point. The Rebbe encouraged keeping a tzedakah box in every home and office so that giving becomes as regular as davening.
DollarDaily is that tzedakah box, made automatic. One dollar leaves your account each day (billed simply each month), and each day it lands somewhere new: a Chabad house in Alaska, a community kitchen in Ukraine, a Hebrew school in Argentina.

How DollarDaily works
One community receives the day
The pooled daily gifts support a named Chabad House or Jewish community.

Read recipient storiesTzedakah online, without losing the kavanah
Automation should deepen the habit, not hollow it out. That's why every day's recipient is named on the calendar, why the daily email tells you exactly whom your dollar reached this morning, and why the weekly IllumiNations stories introduce you to the families your giving supports. You're not funding an anonymous pool — you're meeting a different community every day.
A dollar that spends the whole year traveling
Over one year, your daily dollar reaches 365 different communities across dozens of countries — a spread of tzedakah almost impossible to achieve any other way. See the impact map for everywhere the daily dollar has already been.
Daily allocation, simple billing
The pledge is calculated as a daily amount but billed in a practical monthly or yearly charge. The recipient calendar still assigns a named community to each date, including weekends and Jewish holidays, while payment processing and distribution follow the organization’s operating schedule.
This keeps the donor experience simple without losing the daily purpose: every date belongs to a community and every gift contributes to the shared pool.
Daily tzedakah with visible results
Online giving is most meaningful when the destination is clear. DollarDaily publishes the recipient calendar, maintains an impact map and shares stories from the communities receiving support.
The result is a daily practice that donors can follow instead of a recurring charge that disappears into the background.

Frequently asked questions
How does daily tzedakah work here?
You pledge $1 a day, billed automatically as roughly $30 a month. Each day's combined pool goes to that day's featured Jewish community, published on the recipient calendar.
Is a dollar a day really meaningful?
Pooled with other daily givers, yes — each featured community receives the entire day's pool at once. And Jewish tradition treats the daily habit itself as the greater accomplishment.
Can I give more than a dollar a day?
Yes — pledges can be set at multiples of a dollar a day, and one-time gifts of any size are always welcome.
Does this count as maaser?
Donations to DollarDaily support Jewish communities and shluchim, and are commonly counted toward maaser. For personal halachic questions, ask your rav.
What happens on Shabbos and Jewish holidays?
The giving schedule covers the full calendar year and assigns a recipient to every date. Billing and transfers are processed on the organization’s practical operating schedule rather than charging a card separately each day.
How can I see where today’s tzedakah went?
The public recipient calendar names the community scheduled for each day, and the impact map shows the places supported over time.
