SHEKEL

A collaborative philanthropic fund investing in Torah content creators — pooling monthly donations to scale Torah learning globally.

[01]What it is

Together, $10,000 a month.

As a group, we invest and donate together — funding 1–2 different organizations or content creators every month.

Pooled capital. Shared diligence. Compounding reach.

[02]Investment focus

Organizations & creators that…

i

Produce Torah content

Original, high-quality teaching that earns attention.

ii

Distribute online

Reach native to YouTube, Spotify, social, and the open web.

iii

Show audience growth

Demonstrable traction — not just intention.

iv

Can scale with funding

Capital is the unlock between this size and the next.

[03]Objective

Reach 50,000 people and create 50,000 minutes of Torah learning — per investment.

Each grant must report analytics demonstrating measurable growth attributable to the funding.

[04]Annual impact

[05]Why this matters

Digital Torah content scales like nothing else.

One class can reach:

  • Hundreds live, in person
  • Thousands on YouTube
  • Tens of thousands through clips and shorts

The highest-leverage Torah content opportunities are online — and underfunded.

[06]Long-term vision

Build a recurring Torah Content Fund that…

  • 01

    Helps organizations and creators scale.

  • 02

    Creates collaboration between creators.

  • 03

    Shares best practices across the field.

  • 04

    Scales Torah learning globally.
