Fed up with hunger in your community? You can do something about it, now and during the High Holiday season.
 
This September, participate in JFCS' 2011 High Holiday Food Drive. JFCS food barrels will be located at synagogues, schools, and other institutions throughout the five counties JFCS serves.
 
Most needed items include high-protein, high-nutrient boxed and canned items: tuna fish, peanut butter, whole grains, pasta, soup, vegetables, and fruit. All of the food collected will go to the hundreds of hungry families who use our Food Pantries in San Francisco, Palo Alto, San Mateo, San Rafael, and Santa Rosa.
 
You can drop your packaged items into the JFCS food barrels at the following locations:
