The Search is over! in Jaffa
We spent many hours, days, weeks and even months looking for the perfect facility for our humanitarian aid center in Jaffa.
We had very simple criteria. It had to be:
1) inexpensive
2) easy to get to
3) accessible for elderly
4) large enough to store food for 500 families a month
5) a bathroom
We found a location but by the beginning of the year, the contract details were taking so long, that the owner got impatient with us and rented the facility to someone else. Right away, I found another great location, right across the street! Those negotiations also took a long time... I'm not sure why. In any case, we have the keys and are hoping that by July 1st, we will open the Distribution Center and start feeding needy people.
