As Rosh Hashanah approaches, the Rina Shkolnik Kosher Food Pantry was proud to provide holiday food packages to more than 350 families in our community. Thanks to our incredible volunteers, each package was packed and distributed with care, helping our neighbors prepare for the holiday with dignity.

We are deeply grateful to Met Council and UJA-Federation of New York for helping make this distribution possible. Their generosity allows us to continue being there for local families when they need us most.

If you or someone you know needs assistance with holiday groceries, please contact Rivkah Halpern at (516) 234-6020 or [email protected].

Wishing everyone a sweet, healthy and happy new year. Shana Tova! 🍎🍯

For the first time in New York, Orthodox Jewish families will have access through the state’s Women, Infants and Children nutrition program, WIC, to a Cholov Yisroel infant formula — dairy produced under Jewish supervision.

The change could have particular significance in the Five Towns, where the UJA-Federation of New York’s 2023 Jewish Community Study estimates there are more than 40,000 Jewish families — 69 percent of whom identify as Orthodox Jews — including 15,000 Jewish children. Far Rockaway is another community noted for its Jewish population.
