This Thanksgiving season, help feed Baltimore families with your favorite casserole recipes!
Drop off Date is Tuesday, December 1st (the Tuesday after Thanksgiving)
Drop off locations include Krieger Schechter Day School, Beth El Congregation, Owings Mills JCC, and Park Heights JCC.
Drop off times are listed below. All drop offs are outside and JVC volunteers will be masked.
Who are we helping? Last year we collected close to 400 casseroles and we are hoping to make an even bigger impact this year. Recipients include a variety of local organizations that support families and individuals in need. Recipients include multiple service partners in Baltimore who help those facing food insecurity.
Supplies:
- Disposable casserole tin (usually 12 x 10 inches)
- Ingredients for your favorite casserole dish
- Label
Instructions:
*The COVID-19 pandemic represents a particularly high risk for people who are already experiencing food and housing insecurity, as they are more likely to lack access to medical care and experience complications. For that reason, we require all volunteers to take extra precautions in preparing these meals. Please wash your hands and clean all surfaces before preparing the meals and volunteers should wear gloves and cloth masks while preparing the meals.
- Make your favorite casserole/meal in the casserole tin.
- Place a label on the cover of the casserole with an explanation of what you made and any key ingredients or common allergens.
- Freeze casseroles or make sure they are freshly delivered.
Learn more about the issue of hunger and food insecurity and use discussion questions with your family/group!
