Laura Goldstein, a volunteer for Jewish Family Service of Tidewater, was recently honored by the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore as their Superhero of the Month. Goldstein was nominated and recognized for her dedication, compassion, and unwavering support of the JFS Food Pantry.
Goldstein consistently steps in wherever needed—whether picking up food orders from the Foodbank, taking initiative in the pantry, or offering steady leadership with confidence and care. Always greeting with a smile, she is quick to ask, “What can I do to help?” Her warmth and positivity help create a welcoming, supportive environment for every client who walks through the pantry doors.
Goldstein’s commitment to service extends beyond her volunteer hours. This past Thanksgiving, for example, her daughter organized a fundraiser to support JFS, reflecting the values of generosity and community that Goldstein models every day.
Jewish Family Service of Tidewater is grateful for Goldstein’s dedication and is proud to see her recognized for the meaningful difference she makes in the community.
