Emergency Food Program

Every Saturday morning, Stephen Wise Free Synagogue volunteers prepare bags of non-perishable food items and give them to guests in need.

Join us Saturdays from 8 to 9 a.m. in the lobby of Stephen Wise Free Synagogue to help prepare food packages and distribute them to guests in need.

If you’d like to volunteer, please email Scott DiSavino, Emergency Food Program volunteer coordinator, at EFP@swfs.org. The program was founded by Phyllis Lefkowitz.
