Passover Food Drive
In the past year, Jewish Family & Career Services has seen an astounding increase in the number of people experiencing food insecurity. We have served double the number of families & individuals and provided more than four times the amount* of food compared to months prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our Food Pantry has met the need of these families & individuals with help from generous monetary donations that people, like you, have made throughout the year. Now, we are excited to announce our Passover Food Drive for March 2021.
Join us in ensuring everyone in our Jewish community celebrates Passover by donating to our Passover Food Drive this March. On Sunday, March 7, and Sunday, March 14, we will be hosting a drive-thru food drive for the Sonny & Janet Meyer Food Pantry.
You can participate by donating the kosher for Passover items our community needs most. At this time, JFCS will ONLY ACCEPT the following items and no glass containers will be accepted:
- 8 oz. bags of pecans
- Matzo
- Matzo Meal
- Matzo Ball Soup Mix
- Macaroons
- Kosher for Passover candy & dessert
- Individual sized grape juice
- Regular sized jars of applesauce
Drive thru drop offs can be made at JFCS on Sunday, March 7 and Sunday, March 14 between 1 – 3 pm.** Monetary donations can also be made in support of the food pantry by visiting our secure, online giving form today.
If you have questions please contact us at (502) 452-6341 x360.
