Initiatives
Distribution of grocery and purchasing cards to ~1,000 welfare families from the hard hit cities of Ashkelon, Netivot Sderot and Ofakim
Our initiative is dedicated to providing relief to welfare-dependent families displaced from three cities in southern Israel. These families, already grappling with low income and reliant on welfare support, now find themselves temporarily dispersed across the country. The prevailing situation has led to widespread unemployment, exacerbating the financial hardship they already face.
Social workers from the three affected cities have identified approximately 1,000 such families, compiling a comprehensive list to ensure targeted support. This assistance will be channeled through fellow case workers located across the country. The management of this endeavor is entrusted to ClearGiving, an organization with an established history of collaboration with welfare departments during normal circumstances.
It's important to note that no overhead costs will be incurred during the execution of this project. Our primary objective is to provide each of these families with 5,000 NIS (equivalent to $1,250) over the next couple of months. We have started distributing an initial sum of 2,000 NIS ($500) to each of the 1,000 families.
