Earlier this week, Masbia Soup kitchen Network announced that they were drastically increasing the amount of grocery food clients could take home in one visit to an amount that will last 14 days, and that the normally hot sit-down meals would be to-go. Today, they are announcing two new important initiatives.

1. Masbia launched a web page where people who are quarantined can request food delivery: masbia.org/quarantinefood

2. Masbia will open every day one hour earlier at all locations to accommodate the increase in demand. 

This information was posted to: masbia.org/covid19

Masbia also launched a fundraising campaign to help pay for the increase in food demand (here www.masbia.org/corona). Masbia is also seeking funds to be able to buy excess kosher meals from the airline industry that will not be used in the near future and distribute them to the needy and elderly.
