Did you know that half a million people rely on food provided by the Northern Illinois Food Bank? NuMark is a proud supporter of Northern Illinois Food Bank and our volunteers and staff are working relentlessly to help meet the high demand for food. As a local not-for-profit financial cooperative, we stand true to the “people helping people” philosophy and pride ourselves in supporting our community.

All donations benefit Northern Illinois Food Bank – a proud member of Feeding America. Northern Illinois Food Bank is the source of nutritious food, innovative feeding programs, and hope for more than half a million people each year. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a goal of solving hunger in our 13-county service area, we rely on our generous donors, volunteers, and community partners – the local food pantries and feeding programs, food manufacturers and retailers, companies, foundations and individuals who join with us in our vision for no one to be hungry in Northern Illinois.

" I really take this cause to heart! I think we all know someone, if not ourselves, who have been in a spot where help is needed. I feel like helping at the Northern Illinois Food Bank gives me a chance to “pay back” for all tough those times. It brings happiness to my heart to see the pure joy on a recipient’s face as they fill their bag or box with food knowing they won’t have to struggle for a little while."
