The Young Professionals Division (YPD) of Jewish Federation of St. Louis invites Jewish young adults to start the New Year off right with a community service project to combat food insecurity. Young adults will support the food pantry by making much-needed soup packets for the hungry and learning about the Harvey Kornblum Jewish Food Pantry and other Jewish Family and Children’s Service (JF&CS) programs. The event will take place on Sunday, January 25 at 2:00 pm at the pantry, located at 10601 Baur Blvd in Creve Coeur.

This event is free of charge, but RSVP is requested to Diana Matthis at DMatthis@JFedSTL.org. Participants are encouraged to bring nonperishable food items or personal care items to donate to the pantry. For more information contact Lee’at at LBachar@JFedSTL.org or 314-442-3817.

YPD is for post-college Jewish men and women in their 20s and 30s. YPD works to make and strengthen Jewish connections and create opportunities for young Jews to become involved in the Jewish community and Jewish Federation.
