When I give money to someone’s emergency, something else is also vital and at some point I have to roll with “saying no lets me contribute to further emergencies in the future.” Now I am trying to think the mindset of wanting to help moves us closer to a (unattainable) Tikkun Olam, even when I see myself as merely trying to keep things from getting worse. And of course; if I throw $25 at something it’s big, throwing $100 is beyond possible, but that’s nothing for the folks causing the problems.
