About us

Kehilat Food Pantry is a Non-Profit Kosher Food Pantry serving the Queens Jewish / Immigrant community via daily food distributions.

Established in 1990, Kehilat serves the Queens Immigrant & Jewish community via its open market/ client choice system where all of the food offered is out in the open and clearly visible, allowing clients to choose whatever food they would like for themselves and their family.  

As a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic, what started as a small pantry soon saw a need to expand as the demand for service from clients increased exponentially, resulting in the expansion into the large community organization that it is today.

IT IS OUR BELIEF THAT NOBODY SHOULD HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN DIET / RELIGION AND GOING HUNGRY
