IMG_3691We wish to send out a great big THANK YOU to United Way, Owens-Illinois, Yark Automotive, and Johnson Controls for their participation in the Day of Caring yesterday.  Volunteers from these companies not only held a food drive to help feed 50 families at our mobile visit to Woodsdale Park, they also helped provide a number of services at our stationary pantry and mobile visit yesterday. Volunteers helped us sort food, sort clothing, clean, serve families, read along with Let’s Read You and Me, and re-package a ridiculous amount of German Potato Salad!  We all had a great time!

Is your company running a United Way campaign?  Don’t forget to designate Food For Thought to receive your United Way donation!  We can be written in toward the bottom of your pledge form.

Thank you all!

About Us

Food For Thought provides more than just food - we work hard to provide opportunities for people to interact and develop relationships that aid in redemption and reconciliation. We operate through 3 primary programs: our stationary food pantry, mobile food pantry, and picnics with the unhoused, which you can read more about by exploring our site. Six days a week, Food For Thought is working hard to offer to everyone we meet a free lunch and much more... including a friend to talk to.
