Patrick Cadillac Supports Northern Illinois Food Bank
Northern Illinois Food Bank
In the month of December 2020, the Patrick Dealer Group participated in a fundraising event for the Northern Illinois Food Bank. The Food Bank has been responding to the increased need in our communities since mid-March. In June through September, they have provided 9M meals monthly,
an increase of 3M meals per month from last year at this time. Our goal was $4,000 but our continuous fundraising during the month of December has brought in $6,100 in donations to benefit our communities. That’s 152% of our goal reached.
How Our Donations Helped Make an Impact:
- Every $1 donated helps provide $8 worth of groceries for neighbors in need
- 96% of the Food Bank’s resources go to programs that feed neighbors in need
- The Food Bank services 13 counties in Northern Illinois, providing the equivalent of nearly 220,000 meals each day
- Jewel-Osco has committed to a matching challenge gift of $1 MILLION to Northern Illinois Food Bank – dollar for dollar – for the holiday season.
- Once we achieved our $4,000 goal, the Dawson Family of Patrick Dealer Group donated another $2,000.
