The Crushing Weight of Impossible Choices
A mother stands in the grocery store, calculator in hand, adding up every item twice while her children wait hungrily at home. Medical bills pile up while the refrigerator empties. Parents skip meals so their kids can eat. Children ask for snacks that simply aren’t there. Medical crisis doesn’t pause for hunger—it forces families to choose between healing and eating, between dignity and survival.
At Or Lacholeh, we restore more than sustenance—we restore dignity. Our Food, Clothing & Essentials program ensures no parent has to explain why there’s no dinner, no clean, new clothes, no normalcy when their child needs it most.
Fresh, nutritious groceries that let parents shop with dignity and choose meals their family will actually eat.
New clothes and essentials that help families maintain normalcy and self-respect during their hardest days.
Prepared meals delivered to hospitals and homes, so exhausted parents can focus on healing instead of cooking.
Critical household items and supplies that families can’t afford when medical costs consume everything.
Your contribution fills pantries and hearts with hope when both feel completely empty.
Having a food voucher from Or Lacholeh took such a huge weight off my shoulders. With everything else going on, knowing I could go to the store and get the food my children needed was a relief I can’t describe.
