Together, We Bring Warmth.

At Latet, we support 100,000 families and 1,800 Holocaust survivors year-round with food and essential aid. As winter arrives, many vulnerable Israelis are entering the cold season without heating, warm clothing, or even basic food.

This Winter, the need is especially urgent.
Your gift will provide a Winter Kit with food and essential heating items, like a radiator, blanket, and hot water bottle, offering warmth, protection, and dignity through the coldest months.

A full kit costs $86, but any amount helps us reach those who need it.
Join us in bringing warmth and care to families and seniors across Israel this winter.

Did You Know?

According to Latet’s 2025 Alternative Poverty Report, among the seniors receiving our assistance:

• 38% regularly go without heating or cooling at home because they can’t afford a heater or can’t afford to run one
• 73% live in poverty, and 44% in severe poverty
• 2 in 3 felt lonely during the past year

Donate now to provide a personalized Winter Kit, which include:

• Food essentials
• Heater
• Hot water bottle
• Warm socks
• Umbrella
• Blanket
• Hat
• Scarf
• Gloves
• Emergency light
• And more

Beyond the vital items themselves, your donation sends a powerful message to these seniors: they are not alone, and someone is thinking of them, especially in the cold of winter.

A full Winter Kit costs $86, but every contribution helps bring warmth and dignity to those who need it most.

Donors in the US, Canada, the UK, France and Switzerland can receive a tax receipt valid in their country.

Latet was established in order to assist populations in need, mobilize civil society toward mutual responsibility, and lead a change in national priorities.

We are the leading umbrella organization and food bank in Israel, partnering with 210 local NGOs and organizations across Israel. Each year, we mobilize 38,000 volunteers and provide ongoing assistance to 100,000 families and 1,700 Holocaust survivors.

Giving for three decades and counting

Latet (‘To give’ in Hebrew) is to wake up in the morning with the purpose of making a difference and creating social impact. It means providing immediate, daily help to vulnerable populations, both in routine and in times of emergency, while simultaneously working to create a better future. It’s the Latet spirit that defines us; the drive to face every challenge and move forward with determination and a deep sense of mission.

Since founding Latet in 1996 as Israel’s first humanitarian aid organization of its kind, we’ve led the fight against poverty in Israel through solidarity and a belief in mutual responsibility and giving within civil society. We’ve laid the foundation for innovative, impactful humanitarian action and fostered a culture of volunteerism as a way of life.
Over the years, Latet has become a leading organization driven by excellence, research, and learning. Thanks to our dedicated team, thousands of volunteers, and hundreds of partners, we create meaningful change – from the lives of those in need to national policy – on the path to a more just and better society.
