Colel Chabad is the chief driver of Israel's National Food Security Initiative
a program that impacts on the lives of thousands households seeking to emerge from the cycle of poverty.
Israel's National Food Security Initiative
You’ll see a variety of programs and initiatives when searching for Jewish organizations to donate to online. And while even our Jewish organization has separate initiatives, the importance of nutrition security can’t be overstated.
Nutritional independence is a crucial factor in escaping the clutches of poverty and remaining free from it long term. Colel Chabad’s Israel food charity and fundraising efforts are meant to provide Jews in need with ongoing, reliable support in this domain.
Why Providing Israel Food Security Is Our First Priority
The intent behind Colel Chabad’s Food Security Initiative isn’t to simply monetarily donate to the poor in Israel – although that’s something we also do. It’s to provide vulnerable individuals with the jump-start they need to break free from chronic dependency and live a healthy, fulfilled life.
As a leader among Israeli charitable organizations, Colel Chabad has had the privilege of playing a prominent role in Israel’s National Food Security Initiative. Through its work in nutritional independence, our Jewish charity is proud to say it has made a meaningful impact on Jews across the region.
How Colel Chabad’s Non-Profit Food Security Initiative Works
Serving 26,130 families across 239 municipalities every month, Colel Chabad’s food security initiative provides needy individuals and families with monthly deliveries of fresh fruits and vegetables, dry goods such as rice, beans, lentils, and peas, as well as Food Cards for use in local supermarkets.
We also offer free education on home management and fiscal responsibility. By emphasizing the importance of budgeting and making sound financial decisions, we empower individuals to rise out of poverty and achieve economic self-sufficiency.
The following is a true -and not atypical- story about a woman who received aid from Colel Chabad. When she was first handed a debit card for essential food purchases, she expressed a wish to open a sweet dessert business:
We set her up with a Colel Chabad employment coordinator who helped her design a business card with which to market her talents and support her family. This woman began to find work preparing beautiful and delicious pralines and desserts. She is now well on her way to full economic independence. And all this because Colel Chabad was prepared to invest in someone at a time when they needed that vote of confidence.
