Purim Food Packaging 2014



This Thursday, at Met Council’s Food Pantry Warehouse in Canarsie, Brooklyn, volunteers came together and packaged over 500 meals that will be delivered on Friday, March 14th to Jewish families all over Brooklyn. An anonymous contributor donated the food to Met Council in order to ensure everyone celebrated the holiday Purim.

News reporters arrived to document the amazing effort being put forth by all those onsite in order to make this event a memorable one. Met Council Executive Director, David Frankel, was present to interact with volunteers and also speak on behalf of why it’s so important Met Council continues its fight against poverty.
