Food contributions needed
Did you know that Temple Shalom is committed to bringing 80 cans of tuna and 60 boxes of whole grain crackers to Jewish Family & Children's Services' Family Table every month? Please drop off tuna and whole grain crackers off at the Temple in July and August when meeting our commitment becomes more challenging. We are especially low on whole grain crackers this month with only about 30 boxes in our donation baskets. JF&CS Family Table is serves over 400 families monthly across more than 100 cities and towns.
