Jewish Music Stars Join Video for MillionsforChesed 24-Hour Challenge on June 2

It’s not every day that you see Jewish music stars joining together – unless it’s for something special. In their words: “You will have a hand in making history. Mamash history. By joining Jews everywhere…. To create the largest day of giving for Chesed in HISTORY.”

Yesterday, they released a video to help encourage global support for a unique effort of chesed organizations from throughout the US and Israel who are working together to raise almost $3Million collectively in JUST 24 HOURS, starting tomorrow: Tuesday, at Noon EST, June 2.

Fifteen organizations have joined together in this high stakes, innovative online fundraising initiative to raise more than $2.6M collectively in just 24 hours, starting Noon EST on Tuesday, June 2, 2015.

Each of the sixteen organizations will aim to raise anywhere from $20,000 to $600,000 for their organizations in just 24 hours, each using an innovative online crowdfunding platform: charidy.com.

● All donations on the day of the event will be QUADRUPLED!

● It’s ALL or NOTHING: If the organizations do not meet their online goals within 24 hours, NONE of the pledges are processed or collected!

● And they’re doing it all together, on the same day, increasing the scale and bolstering each other’s efforts!
