JF&CS Family Table Turkey Tzedakah Drive

Give Another Family Something to be Thankful for this Thanksgiving

As November continues, we think about preparing for our own meaningful family Thanksgiving celebrations, which include a table full of food, laughter, and warmth.

At Jewish Family & Children's Service' Family Table, we are also starting to think about Thanksgiving for our "family," the almost 500 struggling individuals we serve through our kosher food pantry.  Imagine what it must be like for a parent to have to choose between paying the rent and buying holiday food.

We experienced a 50% increase over the past year and are reaching more families than ever who need your support.  Please help us provide a meaningful Thanksgiving for a family in need by making a donation today.  Each gift of $25 will cover the cost of one kosher turkey.

Visit www.jfcsboston.org to make your donation online.  You can also make a donation by sending a check to: JF&CS Family Table, 1430 Main St., Waltham, MA 02451
