For bnei Torah with large families, single-parent households, low-income families, and families with hospitalized children, Yom Tov can bring anxiety instead of joy, because the basics are out of reach. Through a trusted network of local gabbaim who verify each case, Meor Hachag distributes assistance with care and discretion. Families complete a simple form before Sukkos and Pesach, and after approval, receive a prepaid card loaded with ₪1,000–₪5,500, based on family size and need. The cards function as standard credit cards and can be used at approved supermarkets, clothing and shoe stores, or for essentials like glasses, giving families the freedom to choose what they need. With dignified help, Meor Hachag allows these families to prepare for Yom Tov with independence and joy and without stress or humiliation.

For thousands of bnei Torah with large families, Shabbos brings stress instead of rest. Parents worry what to serve, how to afford meat or fish, and how to feed their children properly. Mokir Shabbos works through a network of trusted gabbaim across 50 cities to verify ongoing financial need and ensure that only families who genuinely cannot cover Shabbos needs receive help. Every Wednesday, families receive a prepaid card loaded with ₪450, discreetly, allowing them to shop for their own Shabbos meals and prepare them at home. With this support, Shabbos becomes calm, joyful, and meaningful again.
