This is from an email I received. If you can help - please contact me [alchehrm@gmail.com] and I will send you to the source.
[Note about the title - why did I have to write "it won't cost you money"? Who cares if it will cost you money? It is all Hashem's money anyway that he entrusted with you in order to serve Him better?! The answer is that people - even "frum" people - believe that it is THEIR money and guard it, cherish it [often hoard it] and love it. May Hashem forgive them and may they do teshuva. The geuala will come bi-zchus ha-tzdaka כי קרבה ישועתי לבוא וצדקתי להגלות!
And remember sweet friends - all you are left with after your demise [120? 70? 80? 90?] is what you gave away. It is beyond unimaginable to me that so many people are holding money in the bank that they don't need while their own brothers and sisters don't have money for the basics. Wonders of wonders. השם הטוב יכפר!
Hi everyone,
I have an important, yet EASY mitzvah ;) that I need everyone's help with please . You don't have to give any money, or do any major effort.
Let me tell you about the man on the resume:
He is a very chashuv tzaddik in our kehilla. He, his wife and his children are very special, exceptional people . They embody chessed and do everything L'shem Shamayim. They do not seek kavod, they only seek to help people in need. They are really such giving, good people.
Unfortunately he does not have a job right now . He worked for many years in computers, and has been for many months trying to find a new job . I attached his resume to this email.
I beesech of all of you to please, stop, and take a moment and try your best to please think of anyone that you might know who would know of a job for him .
We never know who the shaliach of Hashem will be in helping him get a job.
It can be such an easy mitzvah, in our technology savy generation all we have to do is take a few moments and click a few buttons, or pick up the cell phone and text, forward and send out his bio. The more people who get this resume, the better hishtadlus we can do for him and hopefully IY"H b'karov Hashem will bless him with his new way of parnossah so that he will have a job to work at again.
We learn from the Sefarim Hakedoshim that it's one of the biggest mitzvah's to help someone get parnossah ,even bigger than handing them a check of money and even bigger than giving money to them anonymously because when you give them a job, it gives them dignity and their self respect and it saves them from so much embarrassment.
It's so hard being out of job, so embarrassing, so lonely, so hard financially. It's a very tough nisayon. Please forward his resume out to as many of your contacts that you can. May Hashem bless everyone for helping in this important mitzvah opportunity.
