In this episode, Dr. Weiss sits down with Sally Poolat, the regional representative for Leket Israel, the national food bank of Israel. Sally shares the incredible work Leket does to combat food insecurity, feeding more than 300,000 people each week in a country where 20% of the population lives below the poverty line.
She talks about how Leket Israel rescues surplus produce from over 200 farmers, a lifeline during these challenging times when displaced individuals have increased demand while resources and day laborers have dwindled. She highlights the resilience and dedication driving their mission and discusses how we can all support their vital efforts.
