Zach of Gaia Real Estate Group with Israeli-American Council, Osem and Kedem provide over 400 meals

New York, NY Gaia Real Estate Group, headed by developer and investment sales broker Shay Zach, has been providing food and hot meals to hundreds of elderly New Yorkers in need and medical professionals all over the city. The campaign was initiated by Zach, who was able to raise thousands of dollars for the operation and help local businesses–such as Midwood’s “Schnitzi” restaurant–who were happy to take part in a good cause. 

Together with the support of the The Israeli-American Council (IAC) and Kosher Food manufacturers Osem and Kedem, Zach and volunteers from his daughter’s school–The Hannah Senesh Jewish Day School–traveled throughout Brooklyn and Queens in the past few weeks to distribute over 400 meals to the elderly, with a special focus on Holocaust Survivors. 

Zach, who has recovered from COVID-19 himself, has all the intentions of continuing this effort for as long as he can. “I want to serve as many people as I can, and with the help of my partners I believe this program can keep running for the next six months at least. After I got better, I was left with the notion that I have to do something to help those less fortunate around me in these most turbulent of times. I am thankful I was able to find a way to give back to my community here in NYC.”
