There is something else called “kitzvat yeladim”. This has nothing to do with being chareidi. It is an across-the-board monthly stipend that goes up according to the number of children the family has. It is not major money, but it helps. A family with 8 children gets about 1850 NIS per month, which is about $425-$450.
Now that the Charaidim will be out of the government, this benefit, which was promoted by Gimmel, as the main beneficiaries were Charaidim, as well as other similar benefits, will be cut significantly.
