The Jewish Federation of Flagler and Volusia Counties helped feed over 140 families this past Easter by providing them with enough groceries a few days prior to ensure they would have enough for a holiday meal.
Each family received can goods, fresh vegetables, bread, pastries and either a 5-6 pound frozen turkey breast or a 6-8 pound frozen ham, Jewish Federation President Marvin Miller told the Observer. A total of 28 volunteers, plus the nonprofit's staff, worked hard all day at the Jerry Doliner Food Bank, located at 470 Andalusia Ave., to ensure the families received food, 90% of which comes from Second Harvest Food Bank.
"This all happens, because of our dedicated volunteers, and many donations from so many kind wonderful supporters," Miller said.
