Temple Judea once again sponsors Yom Kippur food donations

The Island Now

For over 20 years the Temple Judea Social Action Committee has established a High Holy Days food collection, which is sent to the Interfaith Nutrition Network.

Each year, congregants have been given empty shopping bags, donated by Holiday Farms, as they leave Rosh Hashanah services. They are then asked to return the bags filled with nutritious food and supplies on Yom Kippur. 

This year was no exception.  Two large trucks were needed to contain all of the bags of food which will fill the shelves at the food pantry. The INN truly appreciates the generosity of the congregants for providing much-needed nutrition for its clients.
