- One in four struggle in poverty
- One in five do without one meal a week
- They are eating irregularly, skipping meals because the government’s meager stipend is woefully inadequate
- Because Israel must spend so much on its defense, it does not have the same social safety net other countries have
- Their diet is below their nutritional needs, causing childhood illnesses to return as hunger weakens their bodies
- Half of all food in Israel is lost before it is eaten
- Leket Israel is the leading food rescue organization in Israel
- We rescue fresh food from hotels, military bases, catering halls and farms
- We provide this food to over 200 non profit organizations in Israel
- This feeds everyone from Holocaust Survivors to at risk youth
