Friendly Reminder: Hunger Walk 2008

Support CCIL by walking in the Greater Chicago Food Depository's Hunger Walk

CCIL staff, volunteers, residents and more than 4,500 others will join the march against hunger on Saturday, June 14, 2008. Funds raised during the Greater Chicago Food Depository's 23rd Annual Hunger Walk directly benefit CCIL's Community Food Pantry. Registration is at 8am, step off is at 9:30am.

In addition to the 2.5 mile walk, this event features an array of fun activities for the whole family. Festivities include entertainment by the Jesse White Tumblers and choral groups. Face painting, caricature artists, jugglers and stilt walkers will also be in the area. Hunger Walk participants receive an event t-shirt, goodie bag, beverages and snacks.

CCIL is going with a red theme this year. So if you’re joining us and have a red t-shirt to wear that would be wonderful. Look for CCIL’s banner, CCIL signs and red shirts in the morning before step off time.

Cross your fingers for sunshine and we hope to see you there!
