In this episode of "Live Local, Give Local" listeners enjoy a warm and insightful conversation between Charles Parisi (the guest host filling in for Dave Mason), co-host Hannah Jaime, the Executive Director of Helping PAWS and a Steering Committee member of San Diego Gives, and three exceptional non-profits with an exclusive focus on serving the holistic needs of the Jewish community in San Diego: Karen Perry, the Executive Director of Hillel San Diego, Mindi Frankel, the Executive Director of Hebrew Free Loan San Diego, and Mark Greenberg, the Development Director of Kindness Initiative. We learn almost instantly that these three organizations embody the true spirit of San Diego Gives in how they collaborate to serve their community. It is about the human being served, and the answer often involves close collaboration. In the case of Hillel, we learn that in the service of Jewish students, finances are often an issue and who do they turn to? Hebrew Free Loan! And when Kindness Initiative identifies a need, they also turn to Hebrew Free Loan. And vice versa. Kindness Initiative and their Volunteer Angels are always ready to serve Hillel and Hebrew Free Loan. Quite an interconnected model that is working to serve a rather large need in San Diego, with 20% of the Jewish community at or on the cusp of poverty. Whether it is finances, food insecurity, spiritual support, or just the all-important feeling of connection, these three stellar leaders and organizations make it happen every single day for the Jewish community. Thank you for listening and your support! Don't miss an episode, so be sure to subscribe to the show on your favorite listening app!

Our lives are an expression of Being. It is performance art. We are our own creations. Joining Janet is Sheryl Hirsch-Kramer. We know her as the instigator of the Love and Kindness Initiative. She is also a former calligraphy artist and teacher who taught how the Divine within us nudges us in our art. BE with us, as we consider the elements in expressing our lives as art.
Over the course of our lifetimes much will happen. How we react, how we choose to respond is up to us. Sheryl Hirsch-Kramer, the instigator of the Love and Kindness Initiative joins Janet in their shared awareness of what is possible. What happens when we let love be our only response? Not hatred, not complacency, not fear. From within our sense of Wholeness, is there a challenge of only extending love and kindness to others in our world?

What I love being a geriatric psychologist is that I am working with people in the end of their lives and really helping them remember who they are and why they matter. If you open yourself up you do find people in the path who are helpful and propel you. The first step in kindness is kind to yourself. And part of that is being grateful.
