Adopt the Food Pantry, Feed the Community
The Jewish Federation of Greater Raleigh continues to support clients experiencing food insecurity through the generous contributions of food and grocery store gift cards from community members! Our new "Adopt the Pantry" initiative is crucial in ensuring the sustainability of this vital resource for families and individuals who rely on our Food Assistance Program.
This is a great service opportunity for clubs, sports teams, scouting troops, and other organizations. Our food pantry has already been adopted by the Beth Meyer Synagogue Social Action Committee, the Clayton/Garner Jewish group, and our Pickleball “Feed the Pantry” Tournament.
There are twenty-four slots available for the year on our Adopt a Pantry Signup Genius, two slots for each month. We kindly request that you sign up for only one slot for the month(s) you are adopting to allow for all of our community organizations to collaborate with us on this mitzvah. Once we receive your signup information, you will receive a confirmation email with more details.
Each partnering organization is responsible for the following:
Providing a visible and accessible space for the collection bins.
Communicating the collection details to their groups or congregation through newsletters and social media posts.
Top Items Needed:
Pasta & Pasta Sauce (jarred)
Canned Veggies
Vegetarian Baked Beans
PB & Jelly
Cleaning Supplies, Paper Products, & Toiletries
