Moving Forward Together

Hunger is a major challenge facing many San Diegans. As many as 33% of our neighbors do not have enough food to last the month. Help us fight food insecurity in our community by donating healthy non-perishable items to the JFS Hand Up Food Pantry. Your healthy food donations will help us stock the shelves and allow us to help our neighbors in need.
