Jewish American Heritage Month

While today he is sharing Hanukkah moments with his daughter, Goldman's history with the holiday and Judaism go way back. His parents also instilled in him the importance of tzedakah, the ethical obligation to charity. "It was very important to [my parents] growing up to make sure that I knew there were people in the world who were less fortunate than me and to always help anyone whenever possible," he explained to Jewish Journal. "It's been a blessing that they did, because the joy and fulfillment one can feel from giving is a singular emotion not felt in many circumstances."

For Goldman, this often takes the form of donating to different organizations and foundations. However, as The Jerusalem Post notes, tzedakah also works on the principle that such giving should be done anonymously, which means that Goldman is less forthcoming about naming all the organizations to which he gives money. Still, he does highlight No Kid Left Hungry, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and Save AChild's Heart Foundation in the giving section of his website. He highlights these, though, with the option for us to donate with the observation that "Every time we give it makes us want to give more."
