Rosh Hashanah is one week away. Some tables are still empty. – Sponsored Content

As we prepare to welcome the Jewish New Year around festive tables with family, the question isn’t just how we celebrate, but who we support. 

While communities worldwide wish each other Chag Sameach, over a third of Israeli children (37.5%) are growing up food insecure, and nearly 6 in 10 families receiving aid have already had to skip meals just to get by. Latet stands beside 500,000 Israelis in need, including 1,700 Holocaust survivors — to make sure we all get to celebrate Rosh Hashanah with joy and dignity.

When you give, you do more than provide food.  You help protect the traditions that financial hardship can quietly take away. This Rosh Hashanah, bring sweetness to their tables by sending a holiday food box to an Israeli family in need. 

The cost of providing a holiday box for a family is $60, but any contribution will help us reach those who need it most.

 Our holiday boxes provide 22 essential and festive items, from daily nutritious staples to Rosh Hashanah honey and wine, so the cost of the holiday does not determine whether a family can celebrate it. 

Your support shows someone facing hardship that they have not been forgotten. During the holidays, that sense of connection can matter as much as what is inside the box. 

At Latet- Israeli Humanitarian Aid, we believe everyone deserves to welcome the New Year around a festive table . Beyond providing ongoing monthly assistance to 500,000 individuals and 1,700 Holocaust survivors across the country, we mobilize ahead of Rosh Hashanah to deliver tens of thousands of holiday food boxes directly to vulnerable families and seniors. 

Latet is a recognized NGO. Your support is seamless and 100% tax-deductible in the US, the UK, France, Canada, Australia and Israel. Please ensure you select your local currency on the donation form to receive the appropriate tax receipt. 

Latet was established in order to assist populations in need, mobilize civil society toward mutual responsibility, and lead a change in national priorities.

We are the leading umbrella organization and food bank in Israel, partnering with 210 local NGOs and organizations across Israel. Each year, we mobilize 38,000 volunteers and provide ongoing assistance to 100,000 families and 1,700 Holocaust survivors.

Latet (‘To give’ in Hebrew) is to wake up in the morning with the purpose of making a difference and creating social impact. It means providing immediate, daily help to vulnerable populations, both in routine and in times of emergency, while simultaneously working to create a better future. It’s the Latet spirit that defines us; the drive to face every challenge and move forward with determination and a deep sense of mission.

Since founding Latet in 1996 as Israel’s first humanitarian aid organization of its kind, we’ve led the fight against poverty in Israel through solidarity and a belief in mutual responsibility and giving within civil society. We’ve laid the foundation for innovative, impactful humanitarian action and fostered a culture of volunteerism as a way of life.
Over the years, Latet has become a leading organization driven by excellence, research, and learning. Thanks to our dedicated team, thousands of volunteers, and hundreds of partners, we create meaningful change – from the lives of those in need to national policy – on the path to a more just and better society.
