- Yad B'Yad
- Yad B'Yad" (Hand-in-Hand) is a non-profit organization established in 1982 by Mrs Shelly Hoshen, who serves as its president. The rationale behind the organization's activities is founded on the premise that every child born into this world has an inherent right to be loved and nurtured, to receive a suitable foundation to develop into productive adults with equal opportunities to integrate and realize their full potential in mainstream society. "Yad B'Yad" therefore extends a helping hand to children at risk throughout Israel. Since Israel's inception in 1948, enormous effort has been invested in educating and nurturing the young generation. However, many children have been left behind in deprived neighborhoods, victims of poverty, neglect and a hostile environment. Many of these children are still ostensibly under the supervision of their parents, who sorely lack the skills and means to cope with their children's problems. Many of these children come from immigrant, single-parent families, living in particularly dire economic circumstances and dependent on national welfare authorities for financial assistance.
