They prepared a food basket for a neighbor who could not feed her children. Since then, Yad Eliezer has grown and over 100,00 people is now receiving help from this organization.
Yad Eliezer's scrupulous management and cadre of over 12,000 volunteers enables the organization to maintain limited overhead and administrative expenses. Indeed, over 96% of funds raised go directly to needy families. Yad Eliezer's mandate is to help families cope with financial difficulties and to empower them to break through the cycle of poverty and achieve self-sufficiency. Web site : www.yadeliezer.org
