"Love your neighbor as yourself"
Emet HaChesed non-profit organization (R.A. 580742203) was established in 2022 by Rabbi Moshe Goldbraich, with a vision of widening the circles of kindness throughout Israeli society, guided by the belief that a healthy society is one built upon giving and mutual support between its members.
Rabbi Goldbraich is a longtime disciple of Rabbi Mordechai Sheinberger. He is a member of the rabbinic council of HaUmah, serves as rabbi of the "Reacha Kamocha" community in the Krayot, and teaches the inner dimensions of Torah in the tradition of Rabbi Ashlag, known as Baal HaSulam, with a particular emphasis on the refinement of character, the work of the soul, and the repair of society.
“When a person performs an act of kindness in the world, kindness is awakened on high
.”
From the Holy Zohar
Our Vision
Our Goals
We believe that a whole and healthy society is one built upon unity and loving-kindness. Our Sages teach that there is one commandment held to be equal to all 613 commandments of the Torah, and it is the commandment "Love your neighbor as yourself." Our vision is to widen the circles of mutual giving, and to weave a far-reaching network of a single, united community, in which each person gives of themselves and helps another. The foundation of such a society lies in the work of refining one's character.
We aspire to a society that reaches for genuine inner work, joining spiritual study with a life of action and care for one's fellow. The ground of this spiritual and inner work we draw from the study of the inner dimensions of Torah, and we offer study workshops for personal empowerment. This learning rests above all upon the inner meaning of "Love your neighbor as yourself," the quality of loving-kindness, for it is written: "The world is built on kindness."
Our organization provides wide-ranging financial assistance to families in hardship: distributing food and vouchers for the purchase of basic necessities for families and infants, clothing, school supplies, holiday packages, and more.
Alongside this financial assistance, we work to help those in need step out of the cycle of poverty and economic hardship, through tailored workshops, personal empowerment, support, and ongoing guidance.
