Zicharon provides support services for individuals caring for loved ones with dementia. Its primary offering is caregiver support groups facilitated by trained professionals who are both frum and personally experienced in dementia care. These support meetings offer a structured, empathetic space for caregivers to connect with others in similar situations, exchange advice, and receive guidance from facilitators familiar with both clinical and communal contexts.

Support groups focus on helping caregivers navigate the emotional, practical, and halachic challenges that often arise when caring for someone with dementia. Participants are encouraged to share their experiences, ask questions, and benefit from the collective wisdom of the group. The meetings also serve as a platform for ongoing peer support and community building.

In addition to group meetings, Zicharon provides information and resources relevant to dementia caregiving, often focusing on issues unique to the Orthodox community. The organization’s facilitators are both professionally trained and sensitized to the cultural and religious nuances of frum caregiving environments, making the guidance particularly relevant and relatable.

Discover. SUPPORT. CONNECT.
At Bridge to the Heart, we believe that tzedakah should be about connection, not attention. In a world where fundraising often leans on marketing tactics, grand campaigns, and external incentives, we aim to bring the focus back to the cause itself—the work being done and the lives being impacted. We provide a direct and transparent way to discover and support Orthodox Jewish organizations. No elaborate events, no expectations—just a place to find causes that align with your values and give because you believe in their mission. With Bridge to the Heart, you can search by name, category, or location to explore organizations that matter to you. Our goal is to reshape the culture of giving, making generosity a reflection of personal conviction rather than outside influence. Tzedakah is about heart, not hype. Let’s bring it back to what truly matters.
