Schottenstein Foundation Helps Create a Happy Chanukah

Schottenstein

The Saul Schottenstein Foundation is helping clients of Federation's primary human service agency Jewish Community Services of South Florida Kosher Food Bank have a happy Chanukah. Thanks to Saul’s generous legacy, Food Bank clients will receive a grocery gift card so they can shop for special items they want to include in their holiday celebration. With so many in our community feeling the effects of the coronavirus crisis, this thoughtful act will brighten their holiday and remind them they are not alone. The program also provides the cards during the summer and in advance of Passover and the High Holidays. If you or someone you know needs help, please contact our Jewish community's confidential helpline at 305.576.6550.
