Why
We Developed This Game
The
number of Jews in the world is far smaller than people
realize. 2005 estimates put the number of Jews at
about 13 to 18 million, less than 0.3% of world population,
and declining because of intermarriage and assimilation.
Given provides families, particularly
those that are multi-cultural, a means to develop
interest, affinity, affiliation, and pride.
What is a Jewish life? Each person may answer in a different way, but we say Jews:
1) Have awareness and knowledge of Jewish history,
holidays, and practices
2) Live Jewish with a focus on Tzedakah
Historical
guidelines for donating money have been 10% of annual
earnings. What is your standard for donating time?
Out of 8,760 hours in a year, most people use about
3,000 for sleeping, 3,000 for work or school, and
1,000 for food and eating, leaving 1,760 hours of available time. 5% of the available
1,760 hours is 88 hours a year - 100 minutes a week.
Do
you donate even 10 minutes a week?
How
much tzedakah is enough for your good life?
