The Ladder Project - You Can Help

The  highest level of the ladder of charity is to provide an individual with the means to support himself, to become self-sufficient, so that never again will he need to rely on the generosity of others to maintain his independence.

Three ways you can help

$36 from every Shearith family ​
1. Our goal is to have 100% of all Shearith Israel families make a donation of $36 or more to a Housing/Transportation Fund set up specifically for The Ladder Project. This money will go to help David and other homeless people who we will help in the future. All donations are charitable and tax-exempt. You can donate   HERE   or mail a personal check to the synagogue, 9401 Douglas Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75225 and write The Ladder Project on the memo line.

A Living Wage Job
2.   We are looking for congregants who can offer David a higher paying job at a Living Wage of $12 to $15/hour. This will be the key to his transition to self-sufficiency. If you can help, email Laura Miller at laura.miller1@sbcglobal.net

Donate your time
3. Another crucial opportunity is to   give David a sense that people care that he succeeds.   Spend time with David  at a:
Restaurant lunch, dinner or coffee 
Transportation to and from David’s apartment at LBJ and Greenville for a Shabbat dinner at shul
Grocery shopping trip 
Phone conversation, just to check in with David
