Jewel-Osco donation arrives at critical time

Posted on 13:07 by Unknown
We are fortunate to report that holiday gifts already are streaming into the Food Depository. But one in particular stands out. Last week, we received a gift of $157,137 from Jewel-Osco for our Hunger Action Month partnership in September. We are so grateful for Jewel's support, especially as we face a daunting holiday season. Thank you, Jewel, for all that you do--including more than 6 million pounds of donated food last year alone. (From left, Kate Maehr, executive director and CEO, Greater Chicago Food Depository, and Sheila Creghin of Jewel-Osco.)
