In the spirit of Matanot L'evyonim, Congregation B'nai Amoona will be helping Leket Israel prevent the needless destruction of fresh food in Israel.
About Leket Israel:
Leket Israel, Israel’s National Food Bank, rescues 60 million lbs. of surplus, high-quality food annually, that otherwise would go to waste, from hundreds of farms, hotels, corporate caterers and IDF army bases. The food is distributed weekly to over 265 non-profits feeding 234,000 Israelis of all backgrounds including Holocaust survivors, immigrants, the elderly, kids at risk, single parent families, the newly unemployed, and more. Each $1 provides 6 lbs. of fresh food delivered to those in need on Purim day and Shushan Purim in order to fulfill the mitzvah of Matanot L’evyonim.
