Our Services

Picture

Tzedakah

We provide for small acute needs via gift cards for groceries and financial assistance for rent and utilities.

As a non-sectarian agency, JFS strives to improve the lives of the most vulnerable Lancaster Community residents.  Our Jewish values of justice, compassion, and respect are the driving forces behind our efforts.  JFS helps community residents who are facing eviction, utility shutoff, and other urgent needs.

​Jewish Family Service lends wheelchairs, walkers, shower stools and chairs, bedside commodes, and more.

JFS also accepts durable medical equipment donations to keep inventory for when it is needed.  Please call us if you have equipment in good, clean condition.  You can help us help assist others with your donation.
