Federation Hosts Food Distribution Drive-Thru

Kosher Food

A restaurant waiter… a paralegal… a single mother… the coronavirus crisis does not discriminate and many in our community are facing food insecurity. To help those individuals and families struggling financially, the Greater Miami Jewish Federation is hosting another Kosher Food Distribution Drive-Thru on Thursday, February 11 from 9-11 a.m. at Federation headquarters, 4200 Biscayne Boulevard. Cars will enter the parking lot via the northbound lane of Federal Highway and volunteers will place packages of fresh produce, challah, kosher meat and non-perishables into each vehicle’s trunk. Participants must remain in their cars and wear masks. This food distribution is generously underwritten by the Richard and Karen LeFrak Charitable Foundation. Partners include Federation’s Jewish Volunteer Center, our primary human service agency Jewish Community Services of South Florida, Repair the World Miami, Farm Share and Miami-Dade County.
