Made for us

Built around the way our community gives.

Tzedaka has its own calendar, its own customs, and its own language. Chai 18 Fund is shaped by all three.

18
חי

Chai — life. In gematria, eighteen. It is why our community gives in 18s, and why it sits at the heart of our name.

i.

The collector at the door

A certificate leaves your hand with dignity — redeemable by verified organizations, recorded in your account.

ii.

Maaser, accounted

Set aside a tenth as money comes in, and always know what has been given and what is still waiting to go out.

iii.

Before Yom Tov

Kimcha d'pischa, maos chittim, the pre-Yom-Tov appeals — give to all of them in minutes, not an evening of envelopes.

iv.

One honest ledger

Every gift — online, card, or certificate — lands in a single history you can search, export, and hand to your accountant.

For mosdos

Receive. Reconcile. Report.

A portal built for the people who keep our mosdos running — from the neighborhood gemach to the largest yeshiva.

  • One place for every contribution — online gifts, card taps, redeemed certificates
  • Clean transaction references your bookkeeper can actually reconcile
  • Reports your board and your bookkeeper will both understand
