"A Place We Can Count On"

At JFS, we are committed to creating a welcoming, inclusive environment for all who seek our support. As an emergency food pantry, we take our role of helping Middlesex residents seriously. For many families, JFS Kosher Food Pantries have become a vital resource to access nutritious food. For two families who travel together each month on pantry pickup days, JFS has become “a place we can count on.” Mrs. R notes, "the food provided helps my family so much. Anyone who I come across that is working hard but unable to make enough to feed their families, I know to tell them about you guys."

 

With the help of food distributors and private donations, our team works tirelessly to keep JFS' Kosher Food Pantries stocked to ensure we are able to help local families in need. We believe that providing nutritious options is crucial to promoting overall health and well-being among those we serve.

 

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of Middlesex families facing food insecurity. To support our mission, please donate online or hold a food collection (Food Drive Flyer). Thank you for helping us feed our community!

Embracing Professional Growth

The first meeting of JFS Career Center's Monthly Job Support Group welcomed an enthusiastic group of individuals, all eager to expand their career options. With the guidance of our dedicated, professional volunteer and career development coach, attendees openly shared their goals and aspirations, creating an atmosphere of genuine support and camaraderie.

 

If you would like to move the needle forward in your career journey or know someone else who would be interested, connect with JFS' Career Center and join our free monthly Job Support group (flyer here) for practical guidance, tools and resources to make strides towards success.
