Using Tithe Money for a Torah Class

Question

I am organizing a Daf Yomi class that is broadcast live on Zoom. There are costs for speakers, a screen, and so on, as well as food and drinks. Can I pay for this with tithe money, and if so, is it a problem that I myself eat and drink?

Answer

Peace and blessings 

Blessed is your portion that you bring merit to the many. 

It is permissible to pay all expenses from tithe money.

You are allowed to eat and drink, just like any other participant.
