  • Turkeys
  • Foil roasting pans
  • Canned yams or sweet potatoes
  • Boxed mashed potatoes
  • Stuffing mixes
  • Pumpkin pie mix
  • Evaporated milk
  • Shelf stable pie crust
  • Canned cranberry sauce or jelly
  • Canned peas or beans
  • Gravy mix
  • Corn bread mix
  • Boxed dessert mix
  • Flour
  • Sugar
  • Oil
  • Grocery store gift cards

While we are making this special appeal for Thanksgiving food, we need food donations all year long for the nearly 1,800 people/month that we serve through the Food Pantry. Please drop off donations in our food barrels at the JFS offices located in Tamarac Square Monday through Friday, 8:15 a.m. - 4:15 p.m. If you have any questions, please call (303) 597.5000.
