History
Chaim Barak, director and founder of Love to the Needy, was once homeless and in need in Australia. There God touched his heart through help he received from the Salvation Army. The truth of Isaiah 58:7 was impressed upon him, and in 1997, Chaim founded Ahava LaNitzkak ” Love to the Needy” in Israel.
The Situation in Israel
According to official statistics, approximately one in every 3 children in Israel is living below the poverty level. Many children go to school without breakfast. Many others also do not have the necessary equipment for school since their parents do not have enough money to purchase books, school backpacks, notebooks, etc.
We Help
Love to the Needy gives help to individuals in need. We help the unemployed, single mothers, new immigrants, the homeless, Holocaust survivors, and others who fall below the poverty line in Israel.
In addition, we help other non-profit organizations which provide for the needy in their localities.
