January Shared Offering: Eastern Illinois Foodbank

The Eastern Illinois Foodbank, which benefits from our January shared offering, likes to say it "puts the soup in soup kitchens, and the food in food pantries." Every day, there are more than 130,000 men, women and children across eastern Illinois who may not have enough to eat. Luckily, there are also hundreds of agencies-from small church food pantries to large homeless shelters-working diligently to help struggling families make ends meet. The Eastern Illinois Foodbank provides a reliable source of food for these agencies.
