THE SHABBAT PROJECT AND LATET
This year the Shabbat Project is teaming up with Latet. Latet means to give – and their holy mandate is to combat poverty and food insecurity in Israel. With the incredible global network of Shabbos Project participants, we hope to raise funds for over 3,000 food boxes that will be packed at the end of the month by dozens of Shabbat Project’s participants in Israel and distributed to hundreds of families in need. Help us reach the goal by donating now.
