A healthy winter - for the cost of lunch!

Support our Winter-Warmth Campaign - Quality winter coats for Israeli families in need

Our work isn’t over yet, there is a long winter ahead, and we want it to be a warm and healthy winter for everyone who turns to us for help. Our goal is to distribute 8500 winter comforters and 500 heaters in addition to the coats that we have already delivered.

Over the years we have been shocked to hear that some of the children who had received quilts from Yad Eliezer were previously sleeping with two or three children under one thin, patched blanket. One mother even wrote us a thank you note saying that her ten year old son was sleeping with his first baby blanket which only covered his back, leaving his legs out in the cold.

Please join us now. A donation of less than you might spend on lunch with a friend is enough to keep a poor child, or an impoverished elderly person warm this winter. For families that cannot afford to heat their drafty apartments at night, a warm quilt can make the difference between a comfortable and healthy winter and disaster.

Please join us now with a generous donation. We are counting on you. Remember, the warmth of our hearts = the warmth in their homes.

Yad Eliezer is a step ahead of the weather. When it was summer in Israel and winter clothing was the last thing on anyone’s mind, we planned ahead and bought 6,873 top quality winter coats at rock bottom prices. The coats have already been distributed to children in 35 cities throughout Israel, bringing smiles to the faces of many thousands of children, and warmth to their hearts in more ways than one. We are very grateful to our donors and community coordinators and volunteers, who helped us reach the families most in need of help, and who gave generously of their time and opened their homes for the coat distributions.
