General
Hazon Yeshaya Organization
The rice and Lentils project sponsored by Mr. Naim
Dangoor has been helping the needy citizens of Jerusalem
for the last six months. It has been executed with
the help of "Hazon Yeshaya", a non-profit
organisation.
3 times a week the organisation is distributing 200
bags of rice to all that comes to each of their three
centres in Jerusalem. The volunteers are preparing
700 hot meals a day, served at the organisation's
main kitchen in Rashi St. and an extra 400 meals a
day are being distributed to children of the "Lemaan
Hayeled", the child support organisation. The
organisation is also delivering food to homes of the
disabled who can't appear in person to receive their
share. For receiving the full meals some medical or
civil documentation is needed proving they are in
need and their details are filed, the rest are welcome
to sit have the rice and lentils served at the kitchen's
site.
Hazon Yeshaya was founded by Rabbi Abraham Israel
and serves the elderly, the impoverished and the disable
and is open to Jews from all ages and backgrounds
through 365 days a year.
Among the services that Hazon Yeshaya is providing
are Bar- Mitzvah celebrations for orphaned and abused
children whose families cannot celebrate for them
and distribution of clothes for those in need. It
also runs two kindergartens for the children of poor
families. Many such children were in the street before
Hazon Yeshaya took sixty of them into kintergardens
supervised by the education department of the Jerusalem
municipality.
