2023 TZH September Food Drive

Tzedakah House is proud to conduct its second annual September food drive to benefit a variety of our non-profit clients, including, but not limited to:

• Connecticut Institute For Refugees and Immigrants (CIRI)

• Downtown Evening Soup Kitchen

• Fellowship Place

• FISH/Friends in Service to Humanity of Northwestern CT

• Integrated Refugee & Immigrant Services (IRIS)

• 'r kids

• The Open Door Shelter

• Pacific House

• Prime Time House

The food drive will run the entire month of September and we are looking for your help in donating canned goods (meats, soups, tuna, stews, chili, fruit), peanut butter, tea bags, coffee, rice, granola, cereal bars, baby food, and more. Personal hygiene items (razors, shampoo, deodorant, soap) are also in high demand, according to several of our clients.

Please be sure to check the expiration date on any item you are donating. Cans that are severely dented cannot be donated. Please also note that pull tabs are preferred for canned goods, as not everyone has access to can openers. TZH will be purchasing can openers to donate.

Thanks to the companies and partners who are donating in 2023, including, but not limited to:

• Anthem Blue Cross & Blue Shield

• Canaan Distributors

• Central Auto Auction

• Excelerate Performance

• Hamilton Connections

• MetLife

• PackEdge

• Richard Manufacturing

• West Hartford Lock Company

For companies that are interested in joining us in 2023, we will be creating flyers to distribute and offering to help pick up the donations from your location. For more information, please email Ben Klein at bklein@tzedakah-house.com or call 203-387-2266.
