Who is Meir Panim?
1.
Feeding the hungry
Meir Panim produces thousands of meals every day, feeding the hungry all over Israel – young and old alike.
2.
supporting Teens at-risk
Meir Panim operates a community center in Sderot. As high-poverty areas with large immigrant populations, there are a large number of at-risk children who depend on the centers to break out of the cycle of poverty.
3.
uplifting holocaust survivors
Meir Panim offers special programs for Holocaust Survivors, ensuring that every one of their needs are cared for in their older age, as well as creating a fun and social environment for the elderly survivors.

ENDORSEMENTS
The Meir Panim organization brings people together, and bridges the gap between the different ethnic groups, communities and sectors that make up the population of Israel. But all this is nothing at all in comparison to their endless devotion and concern for the underprivileged among us who depend on the generous gifts of other people.
Dear Friends, Over the past several years, I have had the privilege of witnessing Meir Panim’s activities on behalf of the needy in Israel. Meir Panim is an organization with a vision to eradicate poverty through supplying services to the needy with dignity and with a view to aiding them in their return to an independent lifestyle. Its restaurants and equipment centers, along with its clubs for children and at-risk youths and vocational training courses, serve to give weaker populations solutions to their needs while maintaining their self respect.
To the administration, employees and volunteers of Meir Panim – may the blessing of God be upon you! “For I said: the world is built through kindness.” Indeed, the virtue of gemilut chasadim (performance of kindness) not only constitutes one of the three pillars on which the world stands, but is also among the fundamental attributes of the offspring of our patriarch Abraham.

Meir Panim’s newest venture, a food center which will supply up to 30,000 hot meals each day, is its most ambitious yet. When realized, children in the region will be well-fed and will be able to study with ease, on full stomachs, helping them to achieve academic success and offering them opportunities for advancement that they would not otherwise have.
I wish Meir Panim all the best in its endeavors. It is my fervent hope that someday we will on longer need Meir Panim’s services in Israel.
