A sandwich for every child

Breakfast helps and contributes to the nutritional balance of the student throughout the day.

Kav HaChesed sends a variety of delicious, nutritious and healthy spreads to schools, as well as a budget for buying bread to make the sandwiches.

Each school has an educator responsible for preparing the sandwiches and distributing them.

Today there are 2 schools in Jerusalem and a school in Ramla that participate in the 'Sandwich for every child' project.

All year round Kav HaChesed distributes sandwiches to hungry children!! Hundreds of children receive every day - two excellent sandwiches!!

Studies show that children who skip breakfast tend to be more late and absent from school than children who eat breakfast regularly. Children who eat a healthy breakfast have been found in studies to perform better in class as well as in play with their friends, with improved concentration, an advantage in problem solving and coordination.

The importance of the sandwiches is enormous for the status and functioning of the children at school: they satisfy their hunger, increase their ability to learn, improve their self-confidence and also make sure that these children feel like everyone else!!
