Can we change the world with just ONE dollar? In this inspiring episode of '30 Minute Mensches,' Jonah talks to Dr. Jonathan Donath, founder and president of Daily Giving, the grassroots online platform that has turned daily donations of just $1 into almost $27 million distributed to over 75 Jewish causes worldwide. Dr. Donath shares the epiphany that led him to start Daily Giving, the importance of working the daily giving “muscle”, and the organization’s growth journey.  A true mensch, Dr. Donath’s appeal will have you racing to sign up so that you too can feel the joy of philanthropy, unity, and the transformative power of giving.

Discussed topics include:

• The Near Death Experience of a Rabbi that Inspired Daily Giving
• The Big Impact of Many Small Mitzvahs
• Stories of Daily Giving’s Work
• Mel Robbins and Why Immediate Action is Important
• Chasing Balance in Life
• Comedian Elon Gold’s Viral Moment for Daily Giving
