Your donation helps strengthen and empower individuals and families.

Your gift could support the continued safety and stability of seniors living on fixed income, put food on the table for families facing financial hardship, provide counseling to children who have experienced abuse to heal, connect families affected by domestic violence with resources to ensure their safety, and provide programs for seniors and Holocaust survivors to experience connection, belonging, and Jewish life.

There is no better way to honor and recognize the ones you love and respect than with a Tribute Card from Jewish Family Services. For weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, b’nai mitzvot, thinking of you reminders and sympathy in remembrance at times of loss, Tribute Cards honor those close to you while also supporting the work of JFS.

With each Tribute Card donation, we send a beautiful card acknowledging your thoughtfulness to the person and/or family that you are recognizing.

Food Pantry

The JFS Food Pantry provides personal care items and other necessities to individuals and families in need. As a special touch, during holidays like Rosh Hashanah and Passover, the holiday brigade (our volunteers) deliver special bags filled with traditional foods and holiday treats.

With an emphasis on maintaining dignity and restoring independence, JFS invites those who qualify to choose specific menu items when filling their pantry order. 

Pantry recipients leave with more than just groceries – they leave with a feeling that the community cares about them and that they are not alone.
