Samara Kline and her son Ryan are working with a fund that encourages donation of bar or bat mitzvah gifts to charity.
The words of Proverbs 22:6 take on new meaning with Donor Advised Funds, an approach to raising money for charity that has been established by bar mitzvah-age youth through the Dallas Jewish Community Foundation.
K-Help (Kids Helping Everyone Live Peacefully) is what 25 young people at Greenhill School have named their fund, one of the newest in the program.
