Family Friendly Opportunities 

Families play a critical role in volunteering at JFS. Learn how your family can make a difference for those in need in our community below. 

Family Service Days offer families and children increased opportunities to volunteer and make a difference. These shifts will take place around school breaks/days off or in the evenings.  

Please check back here for future available dates. 

Weinberg Food Pantry Monthly Evening Volunteer Opportunity

The JFS Weinberg Food Pantry assists individuals and families facing hunger and food insecurity. For some, the pantry helps weather an emergency; for others, it provides supplemental food to make ends meet without sacrificing a family’s health and well-being. 

Sort and pack food, help clients select items, and assist with other vital tasks.   

Every month on the last Wednesday from 3:45 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. at JFS 3201 S. Tamarac Drive

Ages 16 and older to volunteer on your own. Ages 12-15 with an adult.

Current volunteers - please have Team Lead contact Renee Newhouse at rnewhouse@jewishfamilyservice.org.

Justice Necessary Volunteer Opportunity

Justice Necessary works to imagine and implement systemic and sustainable ways to address hygiene poverty in our community. Together with their partners, like JFS, they deliver personal care products to address immediate needs and create structures to ensure reliable access to essentials for our neglected neighbors. 

Volunteers assemble female hygiene kits that help women in the community with this basic need. 

Period kits are bundled and prepared for distribution.  

Boxes of materials can be picked up at JFS and taken offsite to be assembled, then returned to JFS. 

Current volunteers - please have the Team Lead contact Renee Newhouse at rnewhouse@jewishfamilyservice.org.
