Na Laga’at (“Please Touch” in Hebrew), a non-profit organization, has been engaged for years in ‘touching’ people. Our cultural center arranges meetings between people with sensory disabilities and the general public. These days, due to the war in Israel, we cannot host audiences in the various activities at the Na Laga’at Center, but we do not give up on ‘touching’ Israeli society. Our team is involved with various initiatives to help the soldiers and the home front.
Served with Love: hot meals for soldiers and evacuees Na Laga’at’s team of cooks and staff, along with other volunteers, run Na Laga’at’s kosher kitchen to prepare fresh meals for soldiers and evacuees. We take care of the procurement of food and equipment, preparation of meals, packaging and transportation. Our team prepares hundreds of meals daily at a cost of 2 USD per meal. To donate to the project, please visit the campaign page on the JGive website. The demand is high. Every donation feeds someone affected by the war.
For donations of packaging equipment and food ingredients, please contact Oren Itzhaki, Executive Director of Na Laga’at, at oreni@nalagaat.org.il or by phone at 050-8375113.
Signing with Children: Israeli sign language workshops with deaf instructors Na Laga’at sign language instructors visit various hotels to lift the spirits of children evacuated from southern Israel. For requests for activities for evacuees, please contact Ms. Yaara Katalan, Events and Production Manager, via text or WhatsApp messages only at 053-9631144.
