Everyday items are easy to take for granted—until you’ve lost everything.
Since 1994, Vision for Israel has been reaching out to Israelis of all backgrounds who are struggling with poverty. And this assistance has only become more critical, as a wave of poverty has swept the land—leaving many in its wake.
In 2022, the National Insurance Institute's report highlighted a pressing concern with 1.98 million Israelis, including 873,300 children and 152,500 senior citizens, living below the poverty line, marking a significant year-on-year increase. The report also underscored a deepening poverty crisis across nearly all demographic groups, with particularly high rates among ultra-Orthodox communities and families with multiple children. Food insecurity has also worsened, with over 30% of households experiencing nutritional insecurity due to economic reasons, emphasising the growing challenges in ensuring basic needs are met.
Thanks to the generosity of heroic donors like you, we’re able to supply essential emergency relief to poor and needy Jewish and Arab people throughout the nation of Israel.
Through the Millennium Centre, Vision for Israel’s distribution hub, we're able to route essential supplies such as food, gift cards, clothing, toiletries, kitchen and household items, appliances, blankets, towels, linens, diapers, infant and toddler necessities, toys, and so much more — all on a monthly basis.
With your help, we stand ready to answer the call—whenever the poor, immigrants, Holocaust survivors, lone soldiers, and terror survivors are in need. We do this by working directly with social workers, government agencies, and congregational leaders to ensure that each situation is one of genuine need and that our efforts are making the greatest impact.
