How we help

Rejuvenating families in crisis is not for the faint of heart. But with boots-on-the-ground support and a flexible network of assistance, our critical relief programs are giving Israeli families the hands-on help they need – and the love that keeps them strong.

FOOD BOXES

In honor of Shabbos, we pack and deliver boxes of fresh, nutritious food directly to the homes of 845 families each week.

DIRECT COUPONS

We distribute debit cards authorizing the purchase of grocery items for 230 families each month – including many with special dietary needs.

HOLIDAY DISTRIBUTION

Our massive food distribution sites in Jerusalem and Bnei Brak help 1,000+ families get through the expensive holiday seasons twice a year.

ACCOUNT REFILL

For families facing acute crisis, we pay off their grocery account balance – and enable them to start shopping again. Total in 2021: $2M NIS

ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS

ORPHAN PROGRAMS
