Happy New Year! As we celebrated our 50th anniversary of service, 2020 became our busiest year ever. We have so much to be proud of, including responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, opening two temporary facilities to meet the need, expanding all of our programs, and much more! Thank you so much for all your support, and we’re wishing all of our friends and supporters the best in 2021.
This is a holiday season like no other. We’re seeing a continued increase in demand for food assistance from our neighbors throughout Chicago, some of whom are turning to a food pantry for the very first time. Kellie O’Connell, Lakeview Pantry CEO, recently discussed our work with CNN!
At Lakeview Pantry, we believe that food is a human right. The pandemic brought unprecedented challenges, but we were prepared to pivot our programming to meet the needs of our neighbors.
