Jewish Community Collects 2500 lbs of Food Collected Over The Holidays

Thank you to our friends at KKBE and Synagogue Emanu-El for collecting such a large amount of food - approximately 2500 lbs. - during the holidays that we filled up our Kosher Food Pantry AND were able to share food with some other wonderful organizations doing great work with hungry people: Feed Thy Neighborhood and Project Street Outreach. And special thanks to D'Allesandro's Pizza for providing pizza to the hungry volunteers who worked so hard to sort through the food.
