A tithe is a practice where individuals give a portion, typically one-tenth, of their income or produce to support their religious community or organization. This tradition is often rooted in various religious teachings, including those found in the Bible, where it is seen as a way to honor God and contribute to the needs of the church and its activities. In many faiths, tithing is considered a moral obligation and a form of gratitude for blessings received. It can be used to fund community services, support clergy, and maintain places of worship. The concept of tithing encourages generosity and a sense of responsibility within the faith community.
