Delivering Comfort and Food In Jewish Cleveland

Twice a week, Katie, a Holocaust survivor, has meals delivered to her by a volunteer through Jewish Family Service Association (JFSA), a Federation beneficiary agency. Katie is one of hundreds of people every week in our community who receive hot meals through JFSA. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, JFSA staffers stepped up to meet the rapidly increasing demand. And once community members could resume delivery duties, a new, younger crop of volunteers emerged. "I can't stand up or walk as much as I used to be able to," Katie said. "So, I really appreciate having the meals come to me. But I enjoy the people who deliver it even more; they're such lovely, wonderful people."
