Each fall, JFCS holds an annual food drive during the High Holidays. Our community has felt the effects of the pandemic and desperately needs your help to fight food insecurity. The need for food and supplies has increased 10x since the start of the pandemic.

JFCS helps thousands of people annually who often must make a choice between eating and paying for other basic needs, such as housing, utilities, or medications. The JFCS Food Bank helps bridge that gap so people aren’t faced with that choice.

Foods and Household Most Needed:

  • Canned meat and fish
  • Vegetarian soups
  • Tomato sauce
  • Canned vegetables
  • Jams
  • Shampoo and deodorant
  • Household paper products (toilet paper, paper towels, etc.)
  • Toothpaste
  • Laundry detergent
  • Grocery store gift cards
