Nearly 20,000 Pounds of Food Packed for Hungry Neighbors!

Great communities are strengthened through #givingback to those in need. We’re thankful to our team that recently volunteered at both the Northern Illinois Food Bank and the Greater Chicago Food Depository. Together, we packed over 18,800 pounds of food providing nearly 10,000 meals for hungry neighbors in the Chicagoland area.

We’re proud to support the NIFB and GCFD, both members of our client Feeding America, and aid their mission to solve hunger.
