"Having grown up in Dallas, I’ve always admired the vital role that JFS plays in supporting our greater community. The staff and volunteers are incredibly kind, dedicated, and welcoming. Volunteering in the food pantry brings me so much joy and makes my heart happy! I find it so meaningful to help neighbors who are facing food insecurity or challenging times, while also fulfilling my commitment to Tikkun Olam — the responsibility to help repair the world." – Sarah Lerner, 2025 Unsung Hero Award Winner. We can’t wait to honor amazing volunteers like Sarah at our first ever Community Impact Celebration! 📅 Thursday, June 12 from 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM 📍 Dallas JCC, 7900 Northaven Rd, Dallas, TX 75230 (fb)

Do whatever it takes.’ And that’s exactly what we did." 📖 Read more about how our partnership with AT&T helps makes digital access possible: https://loom.ly/vjfvRIw (fb)
