Ask JTF For January 28 Broadcast

<< < (5/7) > >>

Maccabi:
this is sort of a comment on the last question and also a story about donating.

When Chaim says G-d will bless you for donating, it is true.

I made my first donation today (a paltry $15) via PayPal on the site.

When I checked my email later today, 2 or 3 messages above the PayPal receipt for the money I sent was a work offer with what sounds like a great organization (with some pretty bright and attractive Jewish people).

I have been talking to this group for years to no avail, and out of the blue, not 2 hours after I donate to JTF, I get an email where they sound very interested in hiring me for a lucrative deal (at least in terms of webmaster pay).

Which brings me to the next topic: what the poster above says about offering a percentage to fundraisers...I had the same idea and was thinking the same thing. 

Anyone who knows website design and internet promotion could definitely help the JTF and I think it is something I could really get behind and support (I can think of at least 10 different ways I could raise money on the internet).

Anyways...You might set up some sort of liason to people who are interested in promoting where they could create content which would then be approved or rejected as JTF promotional material.  Maybe the webmaster for this site will give interested promoters his contact email.  I think it is an investment which could multiply your support many times over (imagine having 5 zealous clones of your webmaster creating promotional material).

One simple way would just be for the pages to be hosted on JTF.org (to verify their authenticity as JTF approved) and when the donator clicks the PayPal button, the PayPal item name can be distinct for each promoter. (example: donations with the "Item Number 5" in the PayPal order button would be attributed to lubab, pay administrator sends lubab 20% of each contribution from item #5)

Maybe there is some further way to track donations...but so far in 1 week of discovering the JTF I have come to trust this organization and it's views a lot. 

It's a whole new perspective, I think especially for American Jews. 

And Chaim is right when he says that there is NOWHERE ELSE to hear it like this.

It really is a crime that people like Chaim don't have a louder voice.

(sorry for the effuse praising but what can I say? Courage is praiseworthy)

*****
Added Later:  Whether paid or not I will do everything I can to support the JTF.  The only reason I asked is because I have a hard time finding work with people or groups who's opinions I find acceptable...but recently I found some work so hopefully I can do some work for the JTF cause on my own.

Chaim I am curious about your views on buying German products.  I understand why we don't buy German cars since those car companies were involved in the holocost and are evil so my family doesn't buy German cars.  However, I don't understand why you are against buying a product made by a recent company that wasn't involved in the holocost like Behringer  which was founded in 1989. Also, what is your views on a used product?  Did the Rav have these views as well? 

YESHA:
Hello and a shavua tov to you Chaim and the listeners, I will Bli Neder be following you up on the suggestions and topics you gave me for my show – thank you very much for that it was really helpful, my audience is mainly Orthodox, Chareidi, Chassidish, some gentiles – the rest I don’t know. Although they let me do stuff on the show that may offend people, I most likely will not be able to get away with playing audio stuff from JTF, but can read the articles with your permission on the show, editing certain words such as Nazi etc. also I live with no guards and my address is publicly available by Jews and non-Jews alike.  I am not sure who listens as I get little-no-feedback.

My question for this week is at what age did you realize you had leadership capabilities and speaking abilities, and do you think training helps? Is communication abilities and the leadership a G-d given product, like a good sense of humor or can one ‘mold’ oneself to it?

Thank you and Tu Be’shvat Higia Sameach.

Who would you consider to be the most dangerous Jewish enemies of the Jewish State? I already thought of the SatanMar Cult and the Nazi Karta. Are they a serious threat today, or are they just a joke? Either way I have to say Yamach Shma VaZichron. Did I spell it correctly?

Zionist Revolutionary:
Shalom Chaim,

What do you think about Hal Lindsey?

What do you think about Keith Olbermann?
