United Soup Kitchens Dishes Up Hot Meals and Hope for Hungry Israelis
Join Colel Chabad in providing warm meals every day so no one is left hungry or forgotten.
Soup Kitchens United as One
Poverty and hunger don’t take vacation days, and neither do we!
United Soup Kitchens is a network of 23 free restaurants located throughout Israel – and at the heart and soul of Colel Chabad’s food operations in Israel.
We diligently serve thousands of needy people with nutritious, hearty meals year-round.
United Soup Kitchens locations have no register or till. They are entirely supported by our fundraising initiatives and your online donations. Every penny counts, and no donation is too small.
Just $7 is enough to provide anyone from a Holocaust survivor to their young great grandchild with a nutritious meal.

Over Twenty Charity-Run Soup Kitchens Across Israel
Colel Chabad is one of the only Jewish charities in Israel to operate on our comprehensive level. We offer expanded food distribution programs for the most vulnerable populations and have stablished soup kitchens throughout Israel.
United Soup Kitchens can be found in:
Arad, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Bayit V’Gan, Be’er Sheva, Beit Shemesh, Dimona, Holon, Jerusalem, Lod, Ramla, Tzfat, and Yerucham.
More than just soup...
Patrons to United Soup Kitchens receive all that they need for basic sustenance. This includes food, clothing, medical assistance, and emotional support. Our community members feel welcomed, in a kind atmosphere of unconditional acceptance.
As Israel’s largest network of free dining establishments, we serve hundreds of thousands of meals annually, both on premises, and through a sophisticated Meals on Wheels program for those who are unable or too proud to show up in person.
Although questions are never asked, regular guests are sensitively approached by a Colel Chabad social worker to see whether they need any additional help.

Colel Chabad’s nutrition security has become the source Israelis depend on for food and the joy of companionship and community.
We are fortunate to have our wonderful volunteers who serve meals with compassion and respect, as well as devoted donors who fund this critical humanitarian work.
