Clothes & Shoes
Hazon Yeshaya operates a ware-house set up like a department store where individuals and families in need of free clothing and shoes can "shop" in a dignified manner, select and try on merchandise, and receive personal assistance from a volunteer  to find what they need.
 

Free Dental Clinic
Hazon Yeshaya is in the final planning stages of providing a free dental clinic for underprivileged children whose teeth would otherwise not see a dentist. This is a result of discovering children aged eight and nine who are already losing their adult teeth. To make sure no children make it to such a calamitous stage, the free dental clinic will be opened with the services of top dentists who have each agreed to donate part of their valuable time on a regular basis.

 

Holiday Packages
Prior to the holidays, Hazon Yeshaya distributes thousands of food parcels nationwide to needy families. These parcels contain chicken or meat, bread (or matza for Passover), fruits and vegetables, oil, sugar, rice, cakes, cookies and other staples.
 

Bar and Bat Mitzvahs

Hazon Yeshaya sponsors regular Bar and Bat Mitzvah celebrations in Jerusalem for up to 80 boys and girls. These children, who are orphans or who come from abusive or dysfunctional homes, have no other opportunity to mark this important milestone in their lives.

During this “Day to Remember,” the children participate in a prayer ceremony at the Kotel (Western Wall), enjoy a festive meal in a restaurant, and receive personal gifts donated to the children in honor of this special event.


Rice and Lentils Nourish the Hungry

Hazon Yeshaya is very grateful to Mr. Naim Dangoor of London, who has generously committed to establishing the extremely successful Rice and Lentils program.

Rice and lentils are a healthy, nourishing food combination eaten by millions of people around the world. Three times each week, with the support of Mr. Dangoor’s Exilarch's Foundation, Hazon Yeshaya distributes over 2,000 bags of cooked rice and lentils to needy families in Israel.  These rice and lentils are the only meal these families eat the entire day. While no one is required to pay, some put money in a collection box, according to their ability, so that they do not feel they are receiving a free handout. 

Mr. Dangoor’s initiative began in response to former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein’s paying $10,000 to the families of suicide bombers. Mr. Dangoor wanted to do something to help the families of terror victims and the Rice and Lentils program was born. Hazon Yeshaya is grateful for Mr. Dangoor’s ongoing assistance and support, which provides renewed hope along with life’s most basic necessity to those most in need. 
 

Hundreds of bags of cooked rice and lentils from Naim Dangoor’s Exilarch's Foundation are distributed by volunteers at Hazon Yeshaya Soup Kitchens
