How do you give your family good quality, healthy meals each day but stick to your budget at the same time? Thanks to our wonderful members who have sent us their favourite recipes, we've amassed a great collection of meals that won't leave you rummaging through your children's piggy banks at the end of the week...and we don't mean chicken nuggets and pizza every day.

One of the biggest ways to help fight hunger and offer other forms of relief is to raise as much money as possible for the fight. Our main fundraising engine is to partner with individuals and organizations that can help us conduct candy sale fundraising drives.
If you or your organization are interesting in conducting a candy sale or having a food or clothing drive, please go to our fundraising tab and send us a note, we would love to work with you in a way that may fits your availability. We will send you all the candy and materials necessary at no cost to you organization, all we ask is your help in selling the candy to raise the money.
On that note, we’d like to express our thanks to the many Masonic Lodges throughout the state of Illinois that we have been in contact with who have expressed a great interest in helping us out on this front, we greatly appreciate their willingness to step forth and lend a hand by engaging in candy sale fundraising drives to benefit our organization at large.

Feeding Illinois
During Hunger Action Month, Feeding Illinois challenges you to live on $5 a day for seven days. That’s the average SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefit, formerly named food stamps, for an individual in Illinois. By raising awareness of the barriers to accessing high quality, nutritious food on a food stamp budget, we hope to mobilize the public to end hunger in Illinois.
