Only half the children who are eligible receive food assistance
January 1, 1970

The Knesset Members blame the Ministry of Education, which in turn blames the local authorities, who blame the parents. In the meantime, the children’s stomachs continue to grumble.

According to reliable data on the school food project, it was discovered that 67,144 students out of 141,728 are not receiving the daily lunches. The findings of the study, which was conducted by the Sacta-Rashi Foundation at the request of the Knesset Research and Information Center, were presented on Monday morning in the midst of a stormy discussion in the Knesset’s Education Committee.
