Food Drive for SJC Needy

Help us feed Children, Families and Seniors in our Community.

“Out of the 500+ clients who are applying for state benefits approximately 1/2 are families with children, 1/4 are individuals and 1/4 are elderly. Yes, most of the families and individuals are the working poor seeking assistance. Unfortunately, the entire country is seeing a rise in the elderly population becoming homeless, including SJC as they are not able to maintain housing with the rising costs of everything on their fixed incomes.” –Social Services Manager, St. Johns County Health and Human Services
