Help stock our Food Pantry! The most-needed items this month are peanut butter, cereal and deodorant.
Drop off will be in the front circle drive where JFS volunteers and staff will take items directly from cars
—————————
Monthly the Rabbinical Association of Greater Kansas City and area congregations host food drives to help stock the two locations of Jewish Family Services Food Pantry. With the combination of COVID-19 and the wintry weather, donations are needed more than ever.
The JFS Food Pantry is monthly serving more than 900 families and their pets from its two locations, and the numbers continue to grow. JFS relies on food drives and donations for 50 percent of the products it distributes. One in four individuals receiving assistance from the JFS Food Pantry also benefits from one or more additional services the agency provides.
If you miss the opportunity to donate during the Community Food Drives, donations can be delivered. at the JFS barrel in the lobby of the Jewish Community Campus during business hours. Donors can also make a financial contribution to purchase items for the pantry at jfskc.org.
