JCS Kosher Foodbank

The JCS Kosher Foodbank is the only foodbank in Scotland to whom those who observe kosher (kashrut) dietary laws can turn. Every year, we give out over 100 food parcels to vulnerable Jewish families. We also provide special parcels for Jewish holidays such as Pesach to help families who might otherwise not be able to celebrate important festivals.

We are fortunate to be supported by Mark’s Deli, who very kindly house a foodbank box for donations, and we can also accept donations at our headquarters at the Walton Community Centre. We receive financial support from a range of supporters and are happy to earmark any donations made for our Foodbank or Hardship Fund.

How You Can Help

The JCS Kosher Food Bank greatly relies on everyone’s participation. To help combat hunger in our community – one meal, one person at a time – you can:

  • Donate kosher food and other items certified as kosher

  • Donate funds

  • Organize a food drive or other mitzvah project
