KIDS AGAINST HUNGER Celebrates Our 1 Millionth Meal!

80,000 Meals Collated for Earthquake Victims
in Syria and Turkey

over 300 volunteers joined together at the first in-person Kids Against Hunger in 3 years on Saturday, February 25th at the Community House in Winnetka. The Winnetka-Northfield Rotary Club, The Community House in Winnetka and the Volunteer Center once again teamed up to sponsor this popular community event that is always an inspiring opportunity for individuals, friends, families and community groups to come together and feed people in need.

This year Kids Against Hunger partnered with international rescue organization Convoy of Hope to ship a total of 100,000 meals to Turkey to feed victims of the devastating earthquake.

By the end of our event on the 25th had packed and shipped our
ONE MILLIONTH MEAL overseas to starving people in need!

Families, individuals and community groups really made a difference to those in need at Thanksgiving this year.  Clients of the New Trier Food Pantry in Winnetka were treated to baskets of special treats and personal items.  And 180 families from Good News Partners in Rogers Park gratefully received bags filled with groceries to fill their pantries.   We are most thankful for such a generous community!

2022 Flier for Thanksgiving

Lead by global brand professional Mack Reynolds, we’ll be exploring questions like “How can I build an active online community?”, “How can social media help me raise money?” “How can I find and work with social media creators and influencers to build my following?”  “What exactly is Meta, and why do I care?”

Monday, November 7th

Whether you’re already doing it — or don’t really understand why Meta matters to you — you’ll come away with hands-on strategies that will give you the tools and confidence you need to take maximum advantage of this business-building social media platform.    This is a can’t miss opportunity for all nonprofit leaders who are looking to unlock the mystery of Meta!
