High Holy Day Food Drive Supporting JF&CS Food Pantry

For three decades, the Atlanta Jewish community has partnered with the organizations to help feed our hungry neighbors in north Georgia. The Jewish community has been able to provide over 1 million pounds of food to children, seniors, veterans and working families.  This year, TKE is supporting the JF&CS High Holidays Food Drive. We are pleased to be able to collect non-perishable food items in-person for donation to this worthy cause.  If you prefer to make an online monetary donation or want to learn more about the JF&CS High Holidays Food drive, please click here.
Ushering

Start off the New Year by performing a mitzvah! We need warm greeters throughout the High Holy Day services, so please complete the usher volunteer form here and assist our congregants in having an easy and meaningful experience.
