KUNTRUS HACHESED
As we know, chesed starts at the home.
There are a number of chesed opportunities that can be done in the yeshiva - Chesed Pnimi.
Bais Medrash: Organize and put away Seforim daily. Help make the Bais
Medrash the Makom Kadosh that it is.
Chavrusah: There are many times that a fellow talmid might need help in
preparing for a gemarah test, or to be caught up on the sugya. An opportunity
to help him would be a tremendous chesed.
Call a Classmate: When a Talmid misses Yeshiva for a couple of days due to an illness, it would be nice
for him to receive a phone call asking him how he’s feeling or apprising him of what his class is learning.
Gabbai Tzedaka: Daily collection of Tzedaka, counting the money and preparing it for the bank, this
job makes a lot of cents!

Classrooms: Sometimes your classroom can use a little sprucing up. For example, clearing a desk,
picking up a piece of paper, placing Shaimos in the proper place, etc.
