Nourishing the Community
From the Chicago Food Depository's new kitchen, they prepare and distribute made-from-scratch meals to meet the needs of older adults, people with disabilities and individuals with chronic health conditions.
Their goal is 10,000 meals daily – 2.5 million meals per year.
As a Wharton Club of Chicago community member, please join us to provide volunteer service to the community.
