Colel Chabad Meals on wheels - Providing food & Care for Israel's Elderly

Description

More Than a Meal: Inside Colel Chabad’s Meals on Wheels https://colelchabad.org/nutrition-security/meals-on-wheels/ For thousands of homebound seniors across Israel, a knock on the door represents more than just a delivery—it is a lifeline of dignity, health, and human connection. Colel Chabad’s Meals on Wheels is a massive humanitarian effort reaching the country’s most vulnerable residents. From Holocaust survivors to elderly immigrants living in isolation, we ensure that those who helped build this nation are never forgotten or left to face hunger alone. The "Human Touch" Philosophy At Colel Chabad—Israel’s oldest charity, established in 1788—we believe that food is only half the mission. Our volunteers don't just drop a package at the doorstep; they provide a vital "human touch" that keeps spirits high and lives safe. Daily Wellness Checks: For many recipients, our volunteers are the only visitors they receive all day. We step inside, say hello, and make sure they are doing well. Freshness & Dignity: Each day, hot, freshly cooked meals are prepared and delivered to thousands across the country. Personal Connection: Behind every door is a story. Whether it’s 103-year-old Rosa in Jerusalem or a veteran in the north, we treat every recipient with the respect they deserve. In this video, we see the impact of these daily visits and hear the stories of the people who rely on this essential service to survive and thrive. 🕒 Video Highlights 0:00 – The quiet reality of isolation for Israel's seniors 0:21 – Colel Chabad: A legacy of chesed (kindness) since 1788 0:32 – The Meals on Wheels mission: Thousands of meals every day 0:44 – More than food: Why our volunteers "step inside" 1:14 – Meet Rosa: A 103-year-old Jerusalem resident’s story 1:46 – Meeting the rising need during times of national crisis ❤️ How You Can Help As food prices rise and the national situation becomes more complex, the demand for our Meals on Wheels project has never been higher.
