Raising funds to feed hungry children

Home to many new immigrants and low-income families, Kochav Yaakov is a vibrant and welcoming community just outside Jerusalem. But for too many local children, daily hunger is a painful reality. The community runs a hot lunch program in its schools, ensuring all children receive a nutritious meal—regardless of their parents’ ability to pay. Your support will help feed 75 children still in need, offering them dignity, nourishment, and the strength to thrive in the Biblical Heartland.

Samaria

Raising funds to provide food for the holidays

A third of the families in the smaller communities of Samaria live below the poverty line, many struggling to put food on the table. Since October 7th, the situation has worsened, as reservists were called to serve for months, businesses were forced to close, and families have been left grieving or caring for injured loved ones. The Samaria Family Assistance Program provides food vouchers to hundreds of these struggling families—especially during the holidays. Your gift brings hope, dignity, and relief to the pioneers of Samaria during their most difficult times.
