Reply To: Doing Chesed With Mentchlichkeit

I have had dealt with many chesed organizations that help cholim including:

Bein Ish Ubein Achiv

Chai Lifeline

Mekimi

Zichron Shlome

And several Bikur Cholim’s in the NY area

They are run by wonderful people and assisted by countless wonderful volunteers. None of them are perfect, though, and some are more focused on providing to the patient and family than others. However, like I said in my previous post, I don’t feel like I have a right to criticize any of them, being that I have (and continue to) benifit from them. For the same reason, I prefer not to single out one in particular. Doing so would feel wrong.

I am very grateful to all of them, no matter how uncomfortable I may feel about certain issues. I am equally grateful to Hashem that this experience is teaching me the kind of things about true giving that I probably wouldn’t have learned otherwise.
