I have written these articles for my Bat Mitzvah project.

Compassion
What is compassion, exactly? Is it an action, or is it a
feeling? You can feel compassion, but it does no good if you do nothing
about it. CHAI is one of the groups that do something. Through their work to
protect animals, they are making a difference in Israel and are a shining
example to the rest of the world and the animal concerned community. They
spay and neuter animals, as well as finding them both foster homes and
permanent homes. They have saved hundreds of animals, particularly when the
Gaza strip was evacuated. Those animals would have almost certainly been
killed had CHAI not found them and rescued them. If you are donating money
to a charity, donate to CHAI. They are one of the most worthy recipients I
can name. You know your money is needed and will be used for what they say
it will be used for.
Global Warming
What would happen if animals all died? With global
warming, that's looking more likely to be the case. Dozens of
species go extinct every day. If there were no animals in the world,
we would lose their companionship. If you think about it, many
plants wouldn't thrive because they are pollinated by animals. So,
in the end, how would we survive without animals? To prevent animals
from dying out, do what you can to stop and prevent global warming.
Don't support unethical treatment of animals or buy furs.
