PJ FEEDS: Helping the Hungry

Grocery Games

Join PJ Library in participating in the Jewish Family Services "Souper" Bowl & help fill the food pantry!

Thanks to generous grant funding we have limited gift cards available to double your donation of food! During February 1-15, sign up to receive a gift card from $10-100 with an agreement to match the amount in food donations to be delivered to the JCC.
