The Glenview Turkey Trot is partnering with The Greater Chicago Food Depository as our official charity.
The Food Depository is part of a united community effort working to bring food, dignity and hope to our Cook County neighbors. They act as the hub for a network of more than 700 food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters and other programs. These programs provide food where it’s most needed. They also address the root causes of hunger. Public benefits outreach and job training programs offer a hand up for our neighbors to overcome poverty. As the face of hunger in our community has changed, the Food Depository has evolved. Their programs address the specific needs of diverse groups, including children, older adults and veterans.
By taking hunger off the table, they enable families to focus on other priorities, like education, growth and security. We enable communities to face their challenges with confidence. Today and in the long term, providing nutritious food is an investment in health and hope for our neighbors and our community.
Help our community and join as on November 21st when we will run to fight hunger!
