A Summer Food Collection

            HSP would like to thank Corpus Christi Council of Catholic Women in Carol Stream for conducting a food drive. The Council of Catholic Women is a group for women to come together and perform service in their community. Hearing about our food needs the council put out a call to action in their bulletin. These women collected four boxes and two bags of non-perishables including our most needed items canned tuna, peanut butter, jelly and canned vegetables.  
             The Catholic Women’s Council was motivated to help our Feed the Kids Program which provides 100 low-income families with groceries each month during June, July, and August. The families receive 175 lbs of groceries, including 15 varieties of fresh fruits and vegetables, 3 boxes of non-perishables weighing 25 pounds each, 7 kinds of frozen meats, and 3 loaves of Pepperidge Farm bread.
            We thank Council of Catholic Women for conducting this drive for the children we serve. Humanitarian Service Project is always looking for help from the community to volunteer at our center or to conduct food drives. If you or your organization is interested in helping, please contact us at (630)221-8340 or email us at hsp@humanitarianservice.org.
