Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at North Chicago Community Partners! We hope your day is full of happiness and fun with friends and family!
Giving Tuesday is just one week away and this year our goal is to raise $10,000 for our school-based food pantry, the Family Care Closet (FCC)! The FCC provides a safe and respectful place for families to “shop” twice a month for non-perishable food items, household and hygiene items, and even enrichment activities for students. Help us kick start our fundraising by donating today and the first $5,000 raised will be matched by an anonymous family foundation! bit.ly/nccpgivingtuesday #givingtuesday2022 #GivingTuesday
Thank you to our friends at Discover for putting together 75 Thanksgiving Starter Kits for families in North Chicago! Each kit includes a thankful cookie jar, two thankful post cards, a gratitude game, and ingredients for the perfect Thanksgiving meal. Next week, these kits will be handed out to families at our school-based food pantry, the Family Care Closet! If you would like to support the Family Care Closet this holiday season, donate to our Giving Tuesday campaign at bit.ly/nccpgivingtuesday or send us a message to learn how to organize your own food drive! #Thanksgiving #thankful #givingback #givingtuesday2022 #GivingTuesday
