Food Distribution Program
CBJ has partnered with the Jewish Relief Agency (JRA) to create a network for delivering groceries to housebound people in Phoenixville one Sunday a month.
We are now delivering to over 40 households in the area each month. In order to make this program as successful as possible, we need your help packing and delivering boxes! It's a small commitment with a big impact!
See the flyer for more information including delivery dates.
Watch calendar for dates!
