Hours: 10:00-14:00

Branch Manager: Ms. Ilanit Chafuta

The Or Akiva branch is located in a campus between two floors. Before we begin to describe the branch itself, however, we must mention the lush lawns outside. The entire area is filled with green squares. In the plaza outside the building, one can already feel the beauty of the kindness taking place inside. Meet the one and only Ilanit Haputa – Or Akiva’s branch manager. Ilanit is a professor in kindness. One cannot meet Ilanit and not immediately notice the sheer goodness pouring out of her. You cannot speak to her without being interrupted after a few minutes by another teenager who needs her. Ilanit serves as the mother and father to countless children and teenagers. She holds their hands – physically and figuratively. Every person in need knows whom to turn to in Or Akiva. The Or Akiva Meir Panim branch serves as the address for every request – in times of distress, and in times of joy as well. Along with her volunteers, Ilanit cooks delicious, nutritious food. In the afternoon, the visitors will begin to stream in to enjoy a kind word while preparing trays filled with quality food and packaging separate meals for the children back home. Ilanit always knows which word to offer. The branch is her baby; everything begins here. Ask anyone in Or Akiva who the city’s mother is, and the answer will always be: Ilanit Haputa. Ilanit also manages the afternoon clubs with the art of an educator. Every child receives personal attention, as though he were her own son. Parties and birthdays are not just another event – every party is a personal, well-invested affair, and every child receives a personalized birthday cake, his name spelled out in frosting on the glaze. The city residents’ love for Meir Panim is famous. Even the police and municipality know where to turn with every request they receive.

Dimona

Branch Address: Hamekabim, Yoseftal Center, Dimona

Days of Operation: Sunday-Thursday

Hours: 08:00-13:00

Restaurant Manager: Mr. Nissim Almakayes

 

The Dimona branch is a campus, including a dining room, a volunteer room, a board game room, and a tiny office – the office of Nissim Almakayes. You're also invited to meet Nissim Almakayes, the manager of the Dimona branch. From this small room, Nissim manages a vast network of kindness. The room looks like a command center with a task board and deadlines for completion. From here, Nissim's volunteers go out to purchase food supplies for the branch that feeds over 800 people a day. Some will come to the branch to eat their only hot meal of the day, while others will receive deliveries to their homes. A Holocaust survivor sits in his home waiting for Nissim's volunteers. The knock on the door signifies that someone thought of him, someone cares and will continue to care. He won't lack food – Meir Panim will always ensure that. By noon, everything runs like clockwork. Some volunteers go to the homes of lonely, disabled, and elderly people to deliver their lunch and check on their well-being, while others stay at the branch to welcome visitors. At 12:00 PM, the branch buzzes with activity. Meals are also served by volunteers doing community service, and Nissim gently guides them on how to return to life and embark on a new path. Nissim's team also includes intellectually disabled individuals. The love Nissim showers on them is immeasurable. They love Nissim, and Nissim loves them. In the afternoon, Nissim runs a seniors' club and supervises the volunteers at the nearby Koch L'Tet branch. He's attentive to whether a couple is about to get married and lacks the means to furnish their home – Nissim helps them with all their needs.

Branch Manager: Yehudit Elimalech

The Tiberias branch overlooks the beautiful view of the Sea of Galilee, and inside the branch, angels of kindness roam. Yehudit Alimalech, the branch manager, oversees the cooking operations in white aprons, and together with the volunteers, they cook steaming pots of soup and the scents of the dishes waft through Galil Street in Tiberias from the early morning hours. In the afternoons, a diverse crowd from all walks of life enters the branch. The branch manager, along with the volunteers, approaches each one of them, inquiring about their well-being and health. When Yehudit hears that a child has been born to one of the needy, joy overflows: cakes come out of the oven, and balloons are hung in the branch, making everyone feel at home.

Days of Operation: Sunday-Thursday

Hours: 11:00-14:00

Branch Manager: Ms. Daniel Shefaim

The Jerusalem branch operates harmoniously under the management of Daniel and a team of volunteers from diverse backgrounds. In the Jerusalem branch, you can see rehabilitated prisoners alongside volunteers, all standing together in the early morning hours, peeling potatoes and cleaning lettuce leaves for lunch. At 11:30, the flow of diners begins to arrive at the restaurant. Among them are single mothers, lonely elderly people, and individuals struggling to make ends meet. Daniel and the team of volunteers welcome everyone with smiles and love. They make sure to ask each one whether they would like another portion or perhaps are interested in "takeaway" meals. All of this is done with a smile and a generous spirit. Some say that they come to the branch just to see Daniel's smile and to be swept up in his positive energy.

Donate to Israeli holocaust survivors – Meir Panim

Meir Panim is a prominent charity organization in Israel dedicated to helping those in need, with a particular focus on providing support to Holocaust survivors. With thousands of them living in poverty, organizations like Meir Panim are essential in providing aid and comfort

Holocaust survivors in Israel, who should be living out their later years in peace and comfort, often face the harsh reality of economic distress. Many of them were forced to start over with nothing after the war, and even now, their lives are marked by struggles to afford basic necessities. This is where Meir Panim steps in.

Through donations, Meir Panim supports needy Holocaust survivors in Israel, providing food, medical supplies, and companionship. These donations help ensure that Holocaust survivors receive not only the material assistance they require but also the emotional and psychological support needed to navigate the hardships they face in their advanced years.

Food aid – for body and soul

Through meal distribution programs, Meir Panim provides nutritious, hot meals to Holocaust survivors who otherwise might not be able to afford them. The organization’s meal centers, located across Israel, ensure that those in need can come to receive a free, freshly prepared meal in a warm and welcoming environment.

Beyond providing for physical needs, Meir Panim is committed to offering emotional and social support to Holocaust survivors. Many of them experience isolation and loneliness, having lost their families and support systems during the Holocaust. Meir Panim organizes social activities and events for Holocaust survivors, providing them with opportunities to connect with others who share similar experiences and to find community in their older years.

 The demand for help remains high

The organization relies heavily on donations to continue its essential programs. For those wondering how they can help Holocaust survivors in Israel, donating to Meir Panim is a straightforward and effective way to make a meaningful impact. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps improve the lives of survivors who are often struggling with the long-term effects of trauma, poverty, and aging.

Donating to help Holocaust survivors is not just about providing financial support – it is about acknowledging the immense hardships they have faced and ensuring that they can live their remaining years with dignity. For those in a position to contribute, donating to Holocaust survivors through Meir Panim is an opportunity to make a real difference. It is an act of kindness and justice, ensuring that these individuals are not forgotten and receive the care and support they so desperately need.

You can also help!

Meir Panim makes it easy for anyone to donate to Holocaust survivors. The organization’s website provides various donation options, from one-time gifts to recurring contributions.

Donors can choose to give in honor or memory of someone, and can specify that their donations be directed specifically toward programs aiding Holocaust survivors. These donations go directly to providing vital services, ensuring survivors have access to nutritious food, essential medical care, and opportunities for social connection.
