Cincinnati Pesach Delivery Project

Over 350 individuals need your donations of food, time and money.
With generous support by the Rockwern Charitable Foundation

Each dollar donated during March & April will be matched by
The Feinstein Foundation.

List of community supporters as of April 11, 2008

Cincinnati Pesach Delivery Project was adapted from a tradition that began hundreds of years ago to help those less fortunate observe Passover. Today, there is a great need in our own Cincinnati Jewish community.

With support from local Jewish agencies, congregations and youth organizations, Seder Boxes will be delivered Sunday, April 6, 2008 to Jewish families and individuals who would not otherwise be able to observe Passover. We serve approximately 350 individuals each year. These special boxes contain a Kosher for Passover hot meal, matzo, homemade charoset, wine, gefilte fish, macaroons and more.

How can you help?
You can help in two ways. First, by donating the money needed to purchase fresh food items that cannot be donated. You can also help by donating your time. Join us as a volunteer assembling the Seder boxes March 31-April 4, 2008 or helping deliver the boxes to the individuals and families on Sunday, April 6, 2008.  The preparation and delivery site will be at Cincinnati Hebrew Day School, 2222 Losantiville Road in Golf Manor.

Cincinnati Pesach Delivery Project relies solely on contributions from the community.  Without the support of hundreds of individual donors, we could not offer to help so many. And now you can help feed families throughout the year.  We know that many of those who need assistance at Passover may also need some support at other times of the year.  The Jewish Family Service Food Pantry provides kosher food once a month to families and individuals in need.  Won’t you please consider a donation to help at Passover time and throughout the year?
