JFS Community Food Drive

Did you know that each month Jewish Family Services provides more than 800 families with food and non-perishable items through the two locations of its food pantry? Food drives help ensure our guests have a wide variety of items to select from and keep expenses down.

While JFS is happy to accept any shelf-stable food or personal care items, the most needed things for this month are Kosher for Passover items (matzah ball soup mix, grape juice, matzah, macaroons, and dessert mixes), cereal, canned ravioli, cooking oil (smaller than 48 oz), and period products (pads, tampons, liners, and menstrual cups). Please drop off donations in barrels located in the front circle drive.

Donations can also be dropped off in the JFS barrel in the Jewish Community Campus lobby during business hours or at the Brookside office with appointment by calling (816) 333-1172. Donors may also purchase items for the food pantry directly through the JFS Pantry Wish List on Amazon.
