• A ticket is given to you to hand to the volunteer at the distribution pantry building.

Behind The Scenes

During the week we receive food from donor stores and from the Greater Chicago Food Depository. Volunteers unload the boxes or pallets of food, sort through the various items received and stock the shelves, refrigerators and freezers.  Items are pre-bagged as much as possible the day before distribution to make it easier on the day of distribution.
