NGO that gives meals to schoolkids in need will deliver to homes amid pandemic

Two charities have joined forces to ensure that deprived children who usually receive nutritious breakfasts at school will continue to receive meals and food packages while confined to their homes because of the coronavirus.

NEVET is a non-profit organization which distributes some 1.3 million breakfasts a year to more than 9,000 needy pupils at 130 schools across 46 Israeli municipalities during the morning break. The wholemeal sandwich rolls, stuffed with high protein fillings such as cheeses, tuna, hummus, tahini, olives and pickles, are aimed at ensuring a nutritious and fortifying boost that will take pupils through to the end of the school day. For some, it is the only decent food they will get.
