" #SKOKIE, #Illinois — Just off East Prairie Road in this suburb of #Chicago is a sign that says, “Welcome to Hersh’s Fridge.” At the bottom is a line in Aramaic, quoting the Passover Haggadah: “Let all who are hungry come and eat.”
It may not look like much, but the sign points to a pioneering project: an outdoor #kosher community fridge that offers free, fresh #foods and prepared #meals that anyone can take anonymously. The #food, provided by #volunteers and local kosher restaurants, is available at any time of day or night.
The effort is aimed at providing food support for strapped kosher-observant households in the heavily Jewish neighborhood northwest of Chicago."
