The Pesach season that passed saw Tov V’Chesed distribute food to approximately 10,000 poor and orphaned families across Israel.
This year, specifically, some families found themselves in extremely dire straits.
The great influx of needy families was directly linked to lingering impact of the pandemic and economic slowdowns.
After two years of struggling with the effects of Covid, a time when many breadwinners lost their income streams with absolutely no government assistance provided, there were families who literally had no food in the pantry or fridge.
Each of the 10,000 assisted families received, in a discreet manner, between 6-9 food boxes to help bring simchas Yom Tov to their table with peace of mind.
