Thirty-three percent of the people we serve are children.

We provide 2,500 hot meals each day through more than 50 Kids Cafes, after-school programs that provide nutritious food in a nurturing environment.

We also serve more than 30 Chicago Public Schools through our Nourish for Knowledge weekend take-home food program.
