Please join us in feeding our hungry neighbors!
The Faith Formation Confirmation Candidates are partnering with the Northern Illinois Food Bank to kick off the 2020 Share His Love Food and Fund Drive. As the Lenten season approaches, we are asking for your help once again to feed our friends and neighbors.
Did you know half a million people rely on food provided by Northern Illinois Food Bank each year?
Our Confirmands are helping Northern Illinois Food Bank put food on their plates, and you can too by donating to our Virtual Food Drive. The funds we raise together stay right here, in our backyard, and will provide nutritious food like fresh produce, protein, and milk to our hungry neighbors.
Every $1 donated helps provide $8 worth of groceries, so every gift can make a big impact. Here are some other ways Northern Illinois Food Bank puts your dollars to work to solve hunger in Northern Illinois:
- $20 helps provide a monthly food box to a senior who is unable to visit a food pantry.
- $30 helps provide $240 worth of groceries to a family in need.
- $60 a month helps provide a food-filled backpack to feed three children every weekend of the school year.
Help us change the course of hunger by contributing your
monetary or edible donations from February 22nd through March 29th.
Canned goods and other non-perishable foods (no glass containers, please) can be dropped off in the collection boxes located in the vestibule or in the Faith Formation Office. Every donation makes a difference!
May God bless all of you for your kindness and generosity.
Together, we can solve hunger!
Love Everyone Now Through Essential Nourishment
