Volunteers Needed: Rhoda Bloom Kosher Food Pantry

Congregation Shir Shalom collects peanut butter, boxes of tea bags and boxes of cereal for the Rhoda Bloom Kosher Food Pantry. Donations of other Kosher, unopened, non-perishable food are also appreciated. Look for the food collection boxes at Congregation Shir Shalom.

You are welcome and encouraged to make monetary donations, and specifically state it is for the Rhoda Bloom Kosher Food Bank. [Please make your checks payable to Congregation Shir Shalom.] All monies received will be used to buy needed food for the pantry --- and you don’t have to go shopping.

We welcome assistance from men, women and teens. Starting at 9am, the donated food is sorted and packed into boxes for pickup by recipients at the pantry.

If you have any questions, please contact our Congregation Shir Shalom Food Pantry Coordinator, Susan Saffar at (845) 641-5325 or shsaffar@aol.com

One in six Americans is affected by “food insecurity” – the lack of consistent, dependable access to food due to limited money or resources. Rockland Jewish Family Service (RJFS) works to alleviate hunger in our community through the Rhoda Bloom Kosher Food Pantry, which provides kosher food to anyone in need in Rockland.

RJFS is part of Rockland Community Against Hunger (RCAH) which is a collaboration to provide information, raise awareness, mobilize support, & educate the community about healthy food & nutrition. For more information please visit http://www.rocklandhunger.org
