We’re feeling so grateful for our friends at Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani, LLP! A few months ago, the law firm reached out to JFCS to find a way their team could support our Betsy & Peter Fischer Food Pantry — and they came up with a wonderful idea: creating beautiful, homemade dry soup mixes for our clients. We’re so touched by the care and creativity that went into every bag. They look amazing — and we know the soups will make a comforting meal for so many in our community.

Thank you, Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani, LLP, for your kindness and generosity! 🥣✨
