The KKL-JNF Food Baskets Project, in collaboration with farmers from all over Israel, has begun. In the course of he coming few days, hundreds of poor families will get food baskets that will help them fill their tables with fruits, vegetables, and dry foods. The KKL-JNF Workers Union chose to dedicate the project to the memory of the late Prosper Kadosh, Coordinator of KKL-JNF's Contact with the Southern Local Councils. Prosper also played a significant part in the project each year. He passed away about a year ago, after a long battle with cancer.
Israel Goldstein, Chair of the KKL-JNF Workers Union, tells of Prosper Kadosh: "Even before last year's Rosh HaShanah celebrations, in his final days, he still contacted farmers to get more donations for poor families." Goldstein added, "Prosper believed in this project, and each year, he was one of the project's leaders. Prosper always said yes to any request for help. As a workers union, which made it its mission to give, we are proud to commemorate Prosper's 'life project' and do good."
