Winter Holiday Gift Donations

December 24, 2009

During the week of December 21st, TJFS filled the wish lists of over 50 families and over 100 seniors with the help of local synagogues.  By working together, many families from our community donated toys, clothes, household essentials and personal care products for our food bank clients.

This impact of our community’s kindness was clear by the reactions of the recipients.  As one mother said, after receiving her gifts with tears in her eyes, “This is truly overwhelming.  Thank you so much for your generosity.  Thank you….thank you…thank you!”
