     Support our IDF heroes this Sukkot as they protect Israel!
This year, as we approach Sukkot, our hearts are heavier with pain, loss, and uncertainty compared to last year. The hardships we've faced as a nation are overwhelming. Yet, through it all, we united during Rosh Hashanah to welcome the year, we prayed for forgiveness on Yom Kippur, and now, as Sukkot approaches, we fervently pray for peace, the safe return of hostages, the success of our IDF soldiers and reserves, and healing for our injured soldiers.


Sukkot teaches us a powerful lesson: joy can be found in any situation. As we gather in the Sukkah, a fragile, temporary structure, and feast and rejoice within it ,we are reminded that true happiness comes from within, regardless of our surroundings. Sukkot, known as "Zman Simchateinu" (the time of our rejoicing), encourages us to find joy even in difficult times. 

So this Sukkot we unite and allow our unity and love for Israel to give us the strength to celebrate together!

This holiday, it's important to remember that no one deserves joy more than our IDF soldiers, reservists, and their families. By donating Food Cards, you can ensure that these brave soldiers and their families can enjoy Sukkot with dignity. 

Your generosity provides more than just food;

it offers hope and gratitude!
In the merit of your donation, may you and your loved ones be blessed with a peaceful and joyous Chag Sukkot Sameach!

Highlights of the Food Card Program:

Our Administrative budget in Israel is covered by the rebates we receive from the national retailers so that 100% of your donation goes directly to feed needy families. There are NO warehouse and logistical fees spent to cover distribution costs.

 Food Cards are pre programmed so that families can only purchase basic food and household products, and exclude any purchase of cigarettes, alcohol, clothing, cosmetics, ETC.

 

Cards are issued throughout the year, as well as during a war or at Holidays.
