In December on local and national broadcast segments by WTTW correspondent Elizabeth Brackett and the Jim Lehrer News Hour Channel 11, CCIL’s Community Food Pantry was featured demonstrating our impact in assisting residents of the North Lawndale neighborhood meet some of their most essential needs. We opened our Community Food Pantry in November 2006 and it serves more than 200 families per week equaling approximately 9,000 pounds of food each month.
Founded in 1909, CCIL is one of the largest non-profit organizations empowering homeless individuals and families in rebuilding their lives by providing the highest quality employment, housing, counseling and health services.
