Kosher Food Distribution Drive-Thru Helps Those in Need

Kosher

What does it mean to make a difference in our community? For the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, it means helping fight food insecurity for those struggling during these challenging times. To support the most vulnerable among us, we will be hosting another Kosher Food Distribution Drive-Thru on Thursday, January 28 from 9-11 a.m. at Federation headquarters at 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. The distribution has been generously underwritten by Yleana and Yoram Izhak and Janice and Alan Lipton. 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.
