Your generous gifts support Leket Israel, which provides hot meals for Holocaust survivors and vulnerable seniors; Hatikvah preschool in Ukraine, that enables Jewish life to continue in Kiev; Neve Michael, a children’s home serving youth who have experienced trauma and abuse; Susan’s House, which employs youth between ages 15-19; Yad Lakashish in Jerusalem, providing meals and transportation for the elderly; Yashar LaChayal, providing assistance to the Needy Soldier Fund; the Ethiopian National Educational Project; and so many more worthy programs!
