Yad LaKashish
 Israel  |  Community/Family

Yad LaKashish empowers the elderly and disabled poor of Jerusalem to become contributing members of Israeli society through training and work opportunities in handicrafts.

Yad LaKashish is a non-profit organization which provides hundreds of needy elderly Jerusalemites with creative work opportunities and crucial support services. Under the guidance of talented instructors, our elderly participants learn to create beautiful handmade craft and Judaica items which are subsequently sold in our onsite gift shop. We also endeavor to educate young people about the importance of treating the elderly with dignity and respect. We welcome them as visitors and volunteers, and encourage them to serve as ambassadors for our vision and to advocate on behalf of the elderly within their own communities.
