I am so thrilled FOX Chicago teamed up with Jewel-Osco this month for a weekly event called "Stuff the Truck".   So far, we've stopped on the South Side of Chicago and Northwest Indiana and I have been so touched by the outpouring of community support for this effort.   With the sagging economy, many of our local food pantries are struggling to meet the growing demand for help.  Thousands of local children are going hungry and a single can of food can make a difference! 

Please help if you can by making a donation at your local Jewel-Osco store.  Or join us from 7-10am during "Good Day Chicago" for our final "Stuff the Truck" events: 

Thurs. 9/18,  Jewel-Osco,  4 E. Ogden,  Westmont

Thurs., 9/25, Jewel-Osco,  2940 North Ashland, Chicago

Many thanks to the countless people who've donated so far.

Feel free to share your thoughts on Hunger Action Month.

Here are a two video clips from our events so far:

We are up to about $200,000 in cash donations and we've easily brought in at least THREE semi-truck loads of food donations for local pantries!
Please help us to a big finish by joining us next Thursday morning at the Jewel-Osco at 2940 North Ashland... or donate at your local Jewel-Osco.
Thank you, Chicago!
