Make Tzedakah a True Part of Your Home

A little while ago Gary received a request for a Tzedakah Box that could be mounted to the wall in recognition of the tradition that Tzedakah should be a true "part of the home." Intrigued by the idea and seeing that there were not really other examples of Tzedakah Boxes like this, Gary, Bill, Alex and Michael spent some time going through various ideas on how best to create an attractive looking Tzedakah Box that could be mounted to the wall of not only larger buildings such as temples, but in individual homes as well. After some trial and error, the final peices are ready for sale, and you can see them here first! The top of these boxes acts as both the lid and the mount as it stays connected to the wall. The rest of the box slips up over the lid and the brass rod goes through the middle to keep it all in place. There's also a place to use a small lock if you would like. These two models will have suggested retail prices of $120 and $100. We hope to be working with college Hillels and other organizations to create larger versions of these especially for their buildings.
