Until you've visited Yad LaKashish, your tour of Jerusalem is not complete
Each year, thousands of visitors from all over the world come to meet the inspiring elderly artisans at Yad LaKashish| Lifeline for the Old. Here, they witness first-hand the unique way in which we support and empower Jerusalem's elderly population. "This was the highlight of our trip," is a common phrase heard with each visiting group.
