In the countries of the former Soviet Union, hundreds of thousands of elderly Soviet Jews live in shocking poverty. Many are seriously ill, but cannot afford medicine. The problem of orphaned and abandoned children is also critical – thousands of children throughout the region live on the streets. Isaiah 58 funds programs that provide these desperate people with:

* Soup kitchens, meals on wheels, and food boxes
* Medical care including prescriptions, medical supplies, and basic medical care and assistance
* Winter care including warm clothing, footwear and blankets, and heating and cooking fuel
* Physical assistance as well as companionship for elderly shut-ins through in-home care and visits
* A safe place to live, a biblically-based education, and vocational training for orphaned and abandoned Jewish children
