Critical Needs Day Summary

We are so grateful for your ongoing support for the JFCS Squirrel Hill Food Pantry. Your generosity supports the daily needs of our neighbors.

In our community, we are committed to providing critical support and services for all our neighbors. Thanks to our community, we raised $17,908 which equals 53,724 meals supported!

It is not too late to make a tax-deductible donation and support this campaign!


Helping New Citizens Sign Up to Vote

Our ISAC staff seized the opportunity to make a real difference at the City County Building and USCIS naturalization ceremonies. Here, new citizens are not just informed of the services we provide at ISAC and JFCS, but actively assisted in signing up to vote, promoting a sense of community and fulfilling their new responsibilities.
