The JFS Food Pantry was honored to be selected as one of Coastal Virginia Magazine 2025 “Giving Back” charities, one of only 20 organizations chosen. It’s a privilege to be recognized alongside so many impactful nonprofits.

During a time when the need in our community continues to grow, this recognition is a reminder of how vital our work is. Food security matters every day, but it feels especially significant during a holiday centered around sharing a meal. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve, and for everyone who helps make this work possible.
