Food & Toy Drive

Tuesday, December 9, 2025
10am - 2pm

Millions of Americans struggle with food insecurity. Whether in a lapse in their food assistance benefits, unexpected expenses for health problems, or a the loss of employment, this is an urgent issue facing people in our communities. Please consider purchasing some non-perishable items during your next shopping trip and bring them to one of our various locations throughout Chicagoland on Tuesday, December 9th. As families struggle during this season, purchasing toys for children becomes an expense that many parents cannot afford.

Our goal is to gather 1000 pounds of food AND give 100 children a toy this holiday season.

Each donation of food or a toy will make you eligible to enter a raffle supporting Chicago businesses. Raffle partners include Flowers for Dreams, XO Marshmallow, Plum Diamonds, The Event Agency, Lustre Skin Boutique, MJM Occasions and more!


There are still ways to give! EXTENDED!
