Primal Fit Drive for JFS of Greater Hartford

At the Anja Rosenberg Kosher Food Pantry at JFS, needs are growing every day. Around this time last year, we served 630 clients. So far in 2025, we’ve already helped 1,014 individuals - a 61% increase in just one year. 

Rising grocery costs, inflation, and now the government shutdown and pause on SNAP benefits have left many of our neighbors struggling to feed their families.

Every dollar you give helps us fill shelves, feed families, and ensure that no one in our community faces hunger alone. Together, we can meet this moment with compassion and dignity.

1. Canned tuna
2. Diapers
3. Peanut butter
4. Shelf-stable milk
5. Cereal
6. Pasta and pasta sauce
