Grateful Words of Thanks...
"Groceries are costly, the food basket made all the difference. I wish I could thank everyone involved for making this holiday extra special.

Thank you, thank you for your generosity and kindness. Your gift allowed us to buy other necessities with our budget, without sacrificing the holiday.

I am having a holiday meal which I am able to do because of this wonderful organization. I am still looking for a job, so please understand your help is appreciated.

I was blessed with a basket of food. It is special to know that someone thinks and cares about me.

Without JSSA I would not have received this blessing.

Getting the food basket was a huge relief during the holiday. Our children were so excited to have the traditional food that helps make the holiday special. Thank you to everyone that helped make this possible."
