The David The Dreidel Commitment
Our Commitment to Tikkun Olam
While our first priority is to put a smile on childrens’ faces, our hope for this book is deeper. With this project, we want to honor two of the most important Jewish mitzvot: Tzedakah – give back to those in need and Tikkun Olam – do what we can to take care of the world. Here’s how we are embodying those principles.
Tikkun Olam
Repairing the Earth is of the utmost importance as we deal with climate change and issues of social justice with more and more regularity. While our main focus is sharing fun, children’s stories that bring joy and laughter, we still want to leave our physical world better than we found it.
We’ve partnered with EcoEnclose, a local shipping supplies company that “believes that leading e-commerce brands can and will become a sustainable and regenerative force for the environment.” With there support, we’ve been able to:
- send our products using re-usable AND recyclable materials (yes, please re-send the packaging your book arrives in)
- print our labels using a thermal printer, hence not adding any ink cartridges to landfills – ever
- print our greeting cards on recycled paper
