Hunger - Together We Can Fight It

“All that will matter to us someday is what we did while we were here to help those who needed us.” - Alan Shawn Feinstein

For the 12th consecutive year, Alan Shawn Feinstein is dividing $1,000,000 among hunger fighting agencies nationwide to help raise awareness and funds during March and April 2009. Visit www.feinsteinfoundation.org for more information about this remarkable grassroots effort in supporting hungry families.

Feinstein’s past $1,000,000 challenges to fight hunger have raised a record $940,000,000 for agencies nationwide. Any donation CCIL receives designated to the Feinstein Challenge qualifies our organization as being eligible for additional funding from this campaign.

Contributions can be mailed to: CCIL, 2750 W. Roosevelt Road, Chicago, IL Attention: Feinstein Challenge or visit www.ccilworks.org to donate online.

Loyal CCIL supporters know the importance of the work we’re doing to stop the ravages of homelessness and hunger. CCIL could not carry out this tall order without you. This year we plan on meeting and exceeding Mr. Feinstein’s challenge making this one of the most successful
anti-hunger campaigns ever!
