JFCS 2nd Annual Wheels for Meals

Jewish Family & Children’s Service of Greater Mercer County (JFCS) invites you to join us at the 2nd Annual Wheels for Meals, bike ride to fight hunger!

Routes for all riders:

• 50 Mile (8:00 AM start)
• 25 Mile (9:30 AM start)
• 10 Mile (10:00 AM start)
• 3 Mile (10:30 AM start)
• WHY WHEELS FOR MEALS?

In Mercer County, 1 in 12 individuals are hungry.

JFCS maintains an array of hunger prevention programs to address food insecurity:

• On-site brick-and-mortar pantry open 5 days a week
• Two Mobile Food Pantry vehicles making more than 25 stops per month
• Kosher Cafe serving hot lunches to low-income seniors 4 days a week
• Kosher Meals on Wheels delivering weekly meals to homebound seniors
• Food insecurity is an ongoing issue in our community and has become a more urgent problem over the course of the pandemic. The annual inflation rate is the highest it’s been in 40 years. Food prices are experiencing a similar increase. Families who have been struggling to make ends meet are impacted disproportionately by these circumstances.
