Our Impact Stories

  • “This year was hard for me. I lost my brother and had to take a pay cut at work that has put me in debt. My therapy with JFS has changed my life. Handling grief is constant, but I know I was able to get through it because of my therapist’s help.”

    – Carol
  • “This year was hard for me. I lost my brother and had to take a pay cut at work that has put me in debt. My therapy with JFS has changed my life. Handling grief is constant, but I know I was able to get through it because of my therapist’s help.”

    – Linda
  • “My mom suffered a terrible fall that required months of rehab. I live out of state and had no idea how to handle getting her to all the rehab appointments she needed. JFS transportation services made sure she was on time to every appointment, and I felt so good knowing someone reliable was making sure she was getting there and getting home.”

    – Rachel
  • “When I was between jobs I couldn’t buy Chanukah gifts for my kids, I called JFS, and they let me make a few requests that my kids asked for. I didn’t know what to expect but was blown away by the gifts they had for my kids. Chanukah was so special, and I am unbelievably thankful that my kids didn’t have to go without this year.”

    – Aaron
  • “I knew I needed help with my mom, but I just didn’t know where to start. I called one of the care managers or Senior Advisors and they helped guide me and gave me some opportunities to explore with them. I know I will continue to use their services.”

    – Seth
  • “I didn’t know where to turn when my husband and I were struggling to pay bills and feed our family. JFS Food Pantry not only provided food for my family that lasted us until my next pay day but also let me maintain my kosher practices with many kosher items to pick from on the pantry shelves! I can’t say thank you enough!”
    – Leah
     
  • “Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generosity. My children were able to celebrate Chanukah this year and it couldn’t have happened without JFS. With your help, they received “everything” they wanted. And with that in mind, so did I.”

    – Annie, single mother of three
  • “When my husband had a stroke and was forced to live in a nursing home, the JFS transportation service enabled me to visit him three times a week. Without this service, I would have only been able to see him once in a while as I cannot drive. This service has truly transformed our quality of life in a very challenging time.”

    – Zell, 85 years old
  • “When my father got sick, JFS was able to meet all of his medical needs and provide counseling to our entire family as well. No other provider could have helped us in such a holistic and empathetic way.”

    – David
  • “When I lost my job, JFS was there for me and for my children. Nothing can describe how grateful I am for the help we received. In two years my family went from having what we needed to not knowing where we would live or what we would eat. We were hungry and our clothes were too small…”

    – Beth, single mother, unemployed 14 months
