Help stock the Jewish Family Services pantry as part of its Communitywide Food Drive from 10 a.m. to noon, Sunday, Dec. 19, at the Jewish Community Campus, 5801 W 115th St., Overland Park, Kan. Drop off will be in the front circle drive where JFS volunteers and staff will take items directly from cars.
JFS continues to provide more than 800 families with food, household and personal care items - even pet food. Approximately, 50 percent of the items in the pantry come from donated products many received during food drives.
The most-needed items in December are crackers, canned chicken, paper towels, and vegetable oil.
Donations can also be dropped off in the JFS barrel in the lobby of the Campus during business hours or at the Brookside office with appointment by calling (816) 333-1172. Donors may also purchase directly through the JFS Pantry Wish List on Amazon or make a financial contribution to the pantry at jfskc.org.
JFS has all the tools for your organization or company to host its own food drive. For more information, email .
Often the pantry is the entry point for individuals to benefit from one or more additional services JFS provides such as social services, mental health counseling and older adult services. For more information, visit jfskc.org.
