- Nutrition Program
- Volunteers
For more than 160 years, JFCS has been committed to making sure that those in our community who are hungry, or are at risk of hunger, have enough to eat.
In addition to our Food Bank, which provides sustenance throughout the year to many of our clients in need in San Francisco, Marin, Sonoma, San Mateo, and Santa Clara counties, JFCS helps to nourish hundreds of individuals annually through a range of programs:
Our Kosher Meals on Wheels program in San Francisco delivers hot, nutritious meals to frail, homebound seniors with a kosher tradition. We are proud of our partnership on this program with Rhoda Goldman Plaza, which caters these meals.
The JFCS Food Program in San Francisco is a wonderful source of nourishment for very low-income people (age 18 – 60) with disabilities and serious medical conditions. Clients receive a weekly delivery of healthful meals and a generous bag of groceries.
JFCS’ Chicken Soupers volunteers prepare mouthwatering, hearty meals, which they deliver every other week to people with AIDS, chronic illnesses, and disabilities.
One Friday each month, JFCS holds our Senior Shabbat Outreach Program lunch in San Francisco.
Of course, it wouldn’t be the holidays without JFCS’ special outreach to hundreds of seniors, emigres, and people with disabilities, who look forward to personal deliveries of special foods at Hanukkah, Passover, and the High Holidays.
