Jewish Family & Children’s Service seeks donations to serve Glendale location
The “Just 3 Things” food pantry at Jewish Family & Children’s Service is experiencing an urgent demand for personal care items, non-perishable and non-expired foods, cleaning supplies, and small bags of pet food.
The pantry serves youth transitioning out of the foster care system, clients who visit JFCS integrated healthcare centers, and individuals who participate in JFCS programs across the Valley, including the elderly and those facing food insecurity. Social services also benefit its Glendale location, at 5701 W. Talavi Blvd., Suite 180.
“Demand for personal care items and food is up as the cost of goods has skyrocketed,” Len Gutman, JFCS director of philanthropy, shared in a statement. “Inflation has created a tough situation for many of the individuals and families we serve. We don’t want to have to turn anyone away because our shelves are empty.”
