Passover Food Distribution Event - Call for Volunteers



The Family Violence Department is conducting their annual Food Distribution Event on April 1st at Masbia. This nutrition program helps feed families who have experienced violence in their homes while preserving their dignity. Families can shop for Kosher for Passover food in a grocery store like setting where they can choose from fresh produce, chicken, matzo, grape juice and other Kosher for Passover food items.

Each year more and more families benefit from this program. And this year you can help!

Every year, Met Council distributes special Passover packages to 55,000 households. Once again, we need help from our wonderful volunteers to coordinate and distribute these food packages to families in need from our Family Violence Department. Please let us know if you are interested in the Passover volunteer opportunity below.
