Within hours of the war, Colel Chabad’s nationwide network was already operating at full speed. As we approach Passover, we are supporting families of IDF soldiers, hosting public Seders for those in need, and providing safe overnight shelter for elderly residents, including Holocaust survivors.
With the ongoing war, countless families will be celebrating the holidays without their father, as he serves on the front lines to protect them. Ensure they do not feel alone this Pesach.
Many elderly residents, including Holocaust survivors, live in buildings without shelters. Colel Chabad is providing foldable beds and overnight shelter spaces so they can sleep safely during attacks.
We are responsible for 16,000 elderly holocaust survivors, and we will reach every single one of them this Pesach. We will deliver freshly cooked hot meals for every day of Yom Tov, handmade Shemura Matzah, grape juice, a Haggadah — everything they need to have a Pesach that is not just survived, but felt. Meaningful. Jewish. Dignified.

Throughout Israel, 23 soup kitchens serve as the sole source of hot and nutritious meals for numerous poor and lonely individuals every day. This includes Pesach, ensuring that these people enjoy their meals with respect and dignity.
During Yom Tov, each family, including young widows with young children, will receive the support they need, with additional funds provided to cover their Pesach expenses.
For the upcoming holiday, a new pair of shoes or a dress can make all the difference in a child’s joy and self-confidence. These vouchers will be directly mailed to needy families, redeemable at clothing stores throughout Israel.
For the elderly throughout Israel who are homebound and unable to shop or prepare meals on their own, Chabad Colel will provide packed basic foods, delivered directly from our warehouse to their homes.
