Make a Difference for Kids Facing Hunger!
 

The school summer break is meant to be a time of joy for our kids. But for 1 in 9 kids in Northern Illinois, when school lunches disappear, hunger shows up. 

But, YOU can help!

Register for Solve Summer Hunger and start fundraising toward your goal of $242.

Why $242? Because that's our estimated cost of providing a child with nutritious lunches all summer long.
