Our vision is for everyone in Northern Illinois to have the food they need to thrive. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and proud member of Feeding America, we serve our neighbors in 13 counties with dignity, equity and convenience, providing 250,000 meals a day. We bring together manufacturers, local and corporate grocers, area farmers, corporations, foundations and individuals who donate food and funding, and each week nearly 1,000 volunteers assist us by evaluating, repacking and distributing groceries to our neighbors in need. We also proudly partner with more than 900 food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters and youth and senior feeding programs to provide nutritious food and resources.
To provide nutritious food and resources for our neighbors, with dignity, equity and convenience, through partnerships and innovation.
For everyone in Northern Illinois to have the food they need to thrive.
Our Center in Lake Forest is one of four across of our service area and is open to volunteers five shifts each week. We have opportunities for volunteers to sort and pack food, lead teams of volunteers during projects, support our team members with administrative and clerical projects and give back to the community while serving court-mandated service hours.
We also have many ways volunteers can directly support our programs that help our neighbors in need. Volunteers assist with packing nutritious snacks as part of our Child Nutrition Programs, participate in grocery distributions at our Center through our My Pantry Express Program and become a regular member of our MPX Stock the Shelves team.
There are lots of ways to get involved and make a difference for our neighbors today!
