March Mission of the Month: Hinckley Area Food Pantry

This March, we are supporting the Hinckley Area Food Pantry, a vital resource serving residents of Big Rock, Hinckley, Maple Park, Shabbona, and Waterman who face food insecurity.

Operating since 1993, the Hinckley Area Food Pantry provides essential grocery basics in a client-choice model, allowing individuals and families to “shop” for what they need in a setup similar to a grocery store. This empowering approach ensures that clients can select items that best meet their specific needs.

In addition to groceries, the pantry occasionally offers school supplies and household essentials, providing well-rounded support to the community.

How You Can Help:

• Donate Non-Perishable Food Items: Drop off canned goods, dry goods, and other non-perishable foods in our collection bins during March.

• Give Financial Support: Monetary donations help the pantry purchase fresh and specific items in bulk.

• Pray and Advocate: Keep this mission and the families it serves in your prayers and spread awareness about this important cause.

Together, we can ensure that our neighbors in need have access to the essentials for a healthy and hopeful future. Thank you for your support and generosity!
