We can do this!
Hunger is not a disease. It is a situation. And it’s one we can fix!
Let’s work together to solve hunger in Kendall County!
Funds
Of all the things you can donate, money is still the most effective. For every $1 you donate, we use the buying power of Northern Illinois Food Bank to provide $8 worth of groceries to a neighbor in need.
