Give Help

Pray.

There are deep-seated reasons why poverty exists in a wealthy country like ours. Pray for those in need, pray for those seeking to help others and to motivate change in policies that alleviate hunger and homelessness.

Volunteer!

Neighbors Food Pantry is 100% operated by volunteers! From distribution, operations, and even fundraising – all efforts at the pantry are done by volunteers and we are always looking for extra hands to help out! Please contact us if you are interested in volunteering.

Because of our partnership with the Northern Illinois Food Bank, we are able to participate in the Emergency Food Program where we are able to buy large quantities of food at a greatly reduced price – making every dollar you give go much further than the traditional grocery stores. In fact, only spending $.14 for every pound of food purchased! This partnership also offers free commodities of fresh and frozen foods.

Please consider donating today to ensure we can fulfill these purchases each week – feeding all those who come to us in need. Additionally, we always accept donated supplies! Whether that be non-perishables (boxed dinners, canned soup, canned fruits/vegetables, pasta & more) or perishables (we have refrigeration and freezers available), all donations are welcome in order to meet the need in our community.

When you’re doing your online shopping, be sure to shop AmazonSmile and select the Neighbors Food Pantry as your preferred charity. And with every purchase you make, Amazon will donate a portion of the eligible purchases to help meet the need in your community!
