Jewish Federation
The Federation is a great resource for local Jewish communities in North America and around the world.
We use the word K'tzar from the book of Leviticus 19:9 which states:
וּֽבְקֻצְרְכֶם֙ אֶת־קְצִ֣יר אַרְצְכֶ֔ם לֹ֧א תְכַלֶּ֛ה פְּאַ֥ת שָׂדְךָ֖ לִקְצֹ֑ר וְלֶ֥קֶט קְצִֽירְךָ֖ לֹ֥א תְלַקֵּֽט
.
Translated into English:When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
or simply Sowing seeds for others to harvest.
This fits with our mission to grow Judaic ideas as K'tzar is gleaning what's left after a harvest which can be symbolic. We want to help educate for the trees of life.
K'tzar Corporation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We welcome new K'tzar members and appreciate your donations.
