Leket Israel Helps Thousands of Vulnerable Israelis

Nearly one out of every four Israelis goes to bed hungry each night. Your donations to the Annual Federation/UJA Campaign helps support Leket Israel — the National Food Bank, which feeds thousands of vulnerable Israelis. As the leading food rescue organization in Israel, Leket saves food that would otherwise go to waste and distributes it to those in need. Last year, Leket collected more than 14,000 tons of fruits and vegetables and 2.2 million cooked meals and delivered them to more than 200 partner nonprofit organizations.
