American Friends of Meir Panim seeks to alleviate the effects of poverty on thousands of men, women and children across Israel by supporting a range of food and social service programs aimed at helping the needy with dignity and respect. The programs supported by AFMP provide both immediate relief and long-term solutions to the impoverished people of Israel. Meir Panim serves thousands of free meals per day to Israel's needy population through its network of free restaurants and packaged meals delivered daily to needy children, the homebound, elderly and disabled. Prepaid food cards allow recipients to provide for themselves and their families. The Power of Giving program distributes donated clothing and furniture to those in need. Vocational training programs help to break the cycle of poverty and after-school youth clubs are located in many Israeli cities for at-risk children.Meir Panim's goal is to prevent the perpetuation of poverty and dependence on governmental aid or charity by providing Israel's needy with the skills and support they need to rebuild their lives, achieve financial security, and become productive members of Israeli society.
