"Feeding bodies, nurturing souls." Our mission is to Lead the Jewish Community in the Fight Against Hunger. Rabbi Zalman and Rebbetzin Shula Kazen founded the Kosher Food Pantry 40 years ago as a support network assisting Russian immigrants with jobs, food and clothing. Today its mission has greatly expanded to serve a more diverse population. The Kosher Food Pantry is a partner agency of the Greater Cleveland Food Bank which provides dry goods and produce. Donations directly to the Kosher Food Pantry pay for other Kosher staples, additional Jewish holiday foods and supplies, and the cost of transporting, storing and distributing the food. We serve needy Jewish families in Cleveland’s eastern suburbs as well as those referred by Cleveland’s social service agencies without discrimination.
