Maasser Money
Question
Can I use masser money to sponsor month of reading tehliim on a website?
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
You may use maaser money for this purpose. A mong the reasons for this is the rule that one may use maser money for anything that one is not truly obligated to do. You are not obligated to support the reading of Tehillim but you choose to do this mitzva. Hence, maser money may be used.
