How about we band together and each of us do a specific thing (or pertaining to a specific thing, like tefillah) for the next 40 days.

Something easy but the z'chus of so many together is great, I think.

Anyone have ideas?

Currently a sefer torah is being written to unite all Jews. $2 to buy a letter for each member of family.

Any ideas?

Not bashing here seems too hard to follow through ( although of course we should always try not to bash). We need something easy.

While the Sefer Torah is nice, let's do something together specifically all imas as a z'chus.

I propose that we choose a time frame, and everyone donate something, even if it's just a penny, to a place that will offer help to someone worse off.

And that those who can't afford anything say a perek of tehillim for the fellow Imamothers.

Why don’t we create a yom tov fund to help those with no income now who need to make PESACH out of thin air?

Before this whole virus thing started I was at a tehillim gathering for someone who was very ill. The family Rabbi spoke briefly before we started reciting tehillim. He said that people are quick to blame tragedies on specific things but no one can really know what causes them. He said instead of taking on something as a community, each one of us should look within ourselves and resolve to do better in whichever way we know we struggle with.

This really resonated with me because I always get annoyed when a community problem is blamed on tznius or the internet or whatever. No one has nevuah these days to know exactly what brings tragedy to us. But we all know what we struggle with and we can all resolve to do better.

I found a bunch of sites that collect money for yom tov that we can donate to.

http://chcentral.org/donate/

https://cssy.org/

https://charityforisrael.com/yom_tov

https://thechesedfund.com/kupa.....vfund - ALL donations will be matched.

Yes, but I feel like if we ourselves collect it for imas here it’s special for us and more personal.

What if we divide sefer Tehillim and complete it every day?

True. How would we go about that, though?

Open a GoFundMe but make sure you do it under the guidance of a reputable organization or rabbi. I'm done giving random people who open fundraising threads and finding out later it became their only source of parnassa by choice.
