Original Note:
This is not “a jew” custom; some jews do it, some donate money, some actively oppose it, and some contend it’s not even a legit jewish tradition as it’s not based on the Torah. It also doesn’t condemn the chicken to hell, the sacrifice supposedly pays life with death**. https://m.jpost.com/judaism/ahead-of-yom-kippur-jewish-activists-debunk-kapparot-misconceptions-679299 **https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/320228/jewish/Text-of-Kapparot.htm
