During routine times, Leket rescues cooked meals mainly from IDF army bases, hotels, and corporate cafeterias.<\/p><p><strong>In 2024, Leket rescued, purchased, and distributed 2,834,000 fresh and nutritious meals. Of these, 1,833,000 meals were rescued. Due to a reduction in food rescue sources caused by the ongoing war, Leket purchased an additional 250,000 cooked meals this year to ensure continued support for populations in need.<\/strong><\/p><p>In November, even before the ceasefire along the northern border, Leket launched a new and unique project to support the 3,000 residents of Kiryat Shmona who remained in their homes on the front lines. These residents were mostly elderly or families who had children with special needs and were unable to leave their homes.<\/p><p>For this initiative, Leket partnered with Chabad of Kiryat Shmona to distribute hot meals and soups, directly to the residents\u2019 doorsteps. The goal was to provide them with nutritious food, a basic and essential need, while also providing them a sense of security that was crucial during this difficult time. Since the launch of the project, a total of 12,060 meals and soups have been distributed along with 242,920 lbs.

(11,546,000 kg) of fruit and vegetables were purchased directly from the farmers. This effort was done specifically to support Israeli agriculture, which was severely impacted during the war, and to address the significant decline in the availability of agricultural produce.<\/p><p>For years, Israeli farmers have been donating their surplus agricultural produce to Leket Israel, for the purpose of distribution to vulnerable Israelis throughout the country. Out of a deep appreciation for their meaningful contributions, Leket launched the innovative Metivey Leket, Leket Champions, program this year. This initiative aims to strengthen ties with farmers, honor their contributions, nurture the relationship and deepen the partnership with Leket Israel.<\/p><p>In November, Leket hosted a unique celebration for the farmers which was attended by 300 farmers from across the country. The event included a dinner and a ceremony where we expressed our deepest gratitude and appreciation for these invaluable partners.<\/p><p>This was a special opportunity to honor the farmers for their significant contribution to combatting food insecurity in Israel and to strengthen the bonds and partnerships with them, working toward a better future for all. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-83e9a75 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"83e9a75\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div data-dce-advanced-background-color=\"#F5B400\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-669dbf9 e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"669dbf9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:-2,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:3,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Supporting Israeli Agriculture - Extending a Helping Hand to Farmers <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-90b3a8e elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"90b3a8e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Over the past year, Leket Israel, in collaboration with Strauss, established a $4 million (NIS 14 million) grant fund to support 195 farmers in the Gaza border region.

Its goal was to provide immediate assistance for restoring agricultural land, repairing greenhouses, planting new crops and replacing damaged equipment.<\/p><p>In the coming year, Leket Israel will continue this effort with full dedication, focusing on rehabilitating damaged agricultural fields in the north and helping Israeli agriculture recover.<\/p><p>For practical support for the rehabilitation of the fields and local agriculture, Leket mobilized 51,000 volunteers from Israel and around the world. These volunteers assisted 368 farmers with harvesting and field restoration, demonstrating remarkable solidarity and serving as a critical force in helping the farmers recover.<\/p><p>Israeli farmers are essential partners in both national and social resilience as well as key partners in Leket Israel\u2019s mission. Due to the severe impact of the war, many farmers faced significant challenges. In response, Leket Israel established a comprehensive support framework aimed at helping them navigate economic and operational difficulties, bolstering their resilience and supporting local agriculture during this time of crisis.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-94d8ef1 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"94d8ef1\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1af9280 dce_masking-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1af9280\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"755\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/KatifHadarim.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-60661\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/KatifHadarim.jpg 755w, https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/KatifHadarim-300x99.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-dce-background-color=\"#FFFFFF\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a05652 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1a05652\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-11e9219 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"11e9219\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-259d005 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"259d005\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div data-dce-advanced-background-color=\"#F5B400\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-675e9aa e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"675e9aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:-2,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:3,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Volunteers Embrace Leket with Love and Dedication<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5d1aa83 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"5d1aa83\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8836e36 dce_masking-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8836e36\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/iconwithnumber14.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-73017\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/iconwithnumber14.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/iconwithnumber14-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/iconwithnumber14-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4737192 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4737192\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>In 2024, 95,000 volunteers supported Leket Israel\u2019s operations. Of these, 51,000 assisted farmers in the fields, 34,000 volunteered at Harvest Helpers in Rishon Lezion and the Leket Israel Logistics Center and 10,000 participated in distributing food packages to seniors and Holocaust survivors. Volunteers from all over Israel and throughout the world displayed tremendous solidarity, playing a vital role in strengthening local agriculture. Their support was crucial and significantly contributed to reducing food waste in Israel. <\/strong><\/p><p>This past year was especially challenging, filled with change and uncertainty, with new obstacles arising daily. Throughout it all, one thing remained steadfast, the unwavering dedication of Leket Israel\u2019s staff and volunteers. These individuals stood at the forefront of our efforts, day after day, with open hearts and outstretched hands, ensuring help reached everyone in need, even during the most difficult moments.<\/p><p>In September, Leket hosted a special event to express our gratitude to the staff and volunteers. The event, which was held right before Rosh Hashanah, was a unique opportunity to celebrate the upcoming holiday and all those involved in Leket\u2019s mission, for the first time.<\/p><p>The event was hosted in the Netanya Cultural Hall and was attended by around 200 staff members and 400 volunteers. The evening began with a reception and continued with a moving recognition ceremony honoring everyone for their contributions.<\/p><p>Another initiative that was launched involved hiring tour guides, who had been severely impacted by the economic situation and left without work, to serve as paid volunteer coordinators in the field. These guides were trained to connect volunteers with the farmers, ensuring smooth collaboration. Today, the tour guides continue to accompany volunteers six days a week, acting as liaisons for their groups and ensuring the needs of both volunteers and farmers are met effectively. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e25fe8 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"8e25fe8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div data-dce-advanced-background-color=\"#55662C1A\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fdd6a46 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fdd6a46\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u201cI am so grateful for this opportunity.

The goal of the hub is to provide a targeted and focused solution for the nutritional needs of vulnerable populations in the area, offering a meaningful response to the growing food insecurity in the region.<\/p><p>The Karmiel hub operates as a center for colleting and distributing cooked meals, sourced from IDF army bases in the Karmiel area and surrounding regions. The meals are carefully packaged and delivered directly to the homes of the recipients in Karmiel, Akko and the Krayot (Haifa region). Leket\u2019s goal is to ensure that every family receives a hot, nutritious meal. The hub currently provides 220 meals daily, including a variety of hot dishes and soups, tailored specifically to the needs of the population.<\/p><p>The hub is operation in cooperation with the Leket\u2019s nonprofit partner Lichyot B\u2019Kavod (Living with Dignity), which manages the volunteers who work tirelessly every day. This initiative highlights Leket\u2019s commitment to ensuring food security for northern residents, especially during this challenging period, serving as an essential support network for hundreds of families facing economic and nutritional distress.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c51a6ee e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c51a6ee\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div data-dce-advanced-background-color=\"#F5B400\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f30b0a0 e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f30b0a0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:-2,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:3,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">NPO Survey<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ec09f1b elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ec09f1b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Leket Israel collaborates with 300 nonprofit organizations throughout the country, who serve as key partners in distributing food to those in need. Thanks to these partnerships, Leket is able to reach as many people as possible who require assistance and provide vital support during challenging times.<\/p><p>Over the past year, Leket conducted a comprehensive survey among 174 nonprofit partner agencies nationwide from Kiryat Shemona to Eilat. The goal of the survey was to gain a broad understanding of their operations, the characteristics of the populations they serve and their satisfaction with the services they receive from Leket. The survey focused on the impact of the war on vulnerable populations and examined the needs of the NPOs and food donors, with an emphasis on unique groups such as Holocaust survivors and refugees.<\/p><p>The findings reveal that women make up a particularly high percentage of recipients, accounting for 54.77% of all recipients, with the center of the country hosting the largest share of beneficiaries (approximately 39%). Additionally, the largest demographic group among those helped is adults 31-60 (41.84%), followed by children and youth. Another important finding from the survey highlights an increase in assistance for large families and single-parent households, underscoring the growing demand for tailored solutions for these populations.<\/p><p>The survey results provide an important foundation to continue improving and refining Leket\u2019s operations to meet the needs of all recipient populations effectively. This year, more than ever, your support for Leket\u2019s work is critical. Thanks to the donations from our contributors, Leket can respond to the evolving needs of diverse populations across the country and reach those who need it most. Your continued partnership enables Leket to increase its assistance and ensure that Leket Israel remains a vital and dependable resource for the communities served.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c978689 dce_masking-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c978689\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"755\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Amootot-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-60669\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Amootot-1.jpg 755w, https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Amootot-1-300x99.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-dce-background-color=\"#FFFFFF\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d3ca850 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"d3ca850\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0b36e9a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0b36e9a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-32cd2dd e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"32cd2dd\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div data-dce-advanced-background-color=\"#F5B400\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7e2e128 e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7e2e128\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:-2,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:3,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Healthy Nutrition for At Risk Populations<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c04cf11 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c04cf11\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-02a4a57 dce_masking-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"02a4a57\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/iconwithnumber13.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-73015\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/iconwithnumber13.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/iconwithnumber13-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/iconwithnumber13-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-721ad56 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"721ad56\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In 2024, Leket continued to support evacuated families with a special emphasis on providing nutritional assistance tailored to their unique needs.

The mission underscored the strength of partnership, solidarity and shared commitment to easing the burdens of those in need while supporting farmers and communities affected by the crisis.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3119dcc dce_masking-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3119dcc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"755\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SUM.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-60565\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SUM.jpg 755w, https:\/\/www.leket.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SUM-300x99.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leket Israel Summary 2024 The 2024 Annual Report is a summary of Leket\u2019s ongoing activities over the past year alongside the emergency relief efforts which were implemented as a result of the Swords of Iron War.
