Borrowing from tzedaka that I set aside

Question:

Throughout the years I give to a specific tzedaka organization. tzedaka and maaser. At times when I’m low on funds myself I borrow from that set aside money and just mark down what I owe plus a little bit. Is this allowed? Is there any reason not to especially since I add to it? Would there be anything that i shouldnt use borrowed money for? or since the tzedaka is making more money out of it this is allowed? thanks!

Answer:

Yes, it is allowed even without adding any money.

All the best
