FOX 32 Cares partners with Greater Chicago Food Depository to fight hunger — how you can help

Greater Chicago Food Depository fights to end hunger for families

While most schools provide free meals to kids during the school year, the Greater Chicago Food Depository and Fox 32 is aiming to feed thousands of families in need this summer.

CHICAGO - FOX 32 Chicago has partnered with the Greater Chicago Food Depository and Old National Bank to combat hunger in the city. 

The backstory:

In partnership with Old National Bank and Greater Chicago Food Depository, FOX 32 Cares wants to provide 60,000 nutritious meals for kids this summer. Most schools provide two square meals per day for children during the academic year. This ends with the school year. 

Leaving many families to face food insecurities all summer. This is where you can help. 

Each dollar donated will provide three nutritious meals for children across Chicago. FOX 32 Cares is looking to raise $10,000 in donations. 

Old National Bank has generously agreed to match those donations dollar for dollar. Those $20,000 in donations will provide 60,000 meals this summer.

What's next:

Your support provides nutritious food for our neighbors who turn to the Greater Chicago Food Depository's network of more than 800 community partners and programs. Together we can end hunger!
