Photo of Star of David on Tzedakah boxes (a.k.a. pushke) is courtesy of Liora who published it on Flickr. She herself doesn’t use it for Tzedakah but as a place for her doodles, drawings, and other creations. The Yiddish word, pushke is derived from the Polish word puszka and means: saving box.

Photo is courtesy of "time fly". He published it on Flickr with the caption:
There has been a Jewish settlement in Essaouira since before the Phonecians. The quarter ...is still in good shape, but homes and buildings are identified by a 6-pointed star.
"time fly" wrote to me that this photo was taken in the Moroccan seaside little town of Essaouia. The Jewish community there dates from around 1700.
