According to Torah Maaser is 10% of the net income after applicable expense deductions. Maaser for the poor is 5%. However, someone who God forbid is destitute or by giving a Masser will end up in financial crisis, is not allowed to give Maaser. Some people chose to give 20% and sometimes they make additional contributions outside of Maaser, which could be counted towards the Maaser. There are categories of donations that are not considered as the Maaser. In any occasion everyone should have a Rabbi to consult with since everyone’s situation is unique and general laws might not be applicable for them.
