Come join us for this HCAB x SFP sponsored event to create care packages with donations we have collected since last year!
This event is sponsored by La Casa Norte, a local Chicago organization that serves youth and families confronting homelessness. We will meet at one of their pop-up pantries called The Plant to first assemble the care packages, and we will then distribute them to the homeless during their visit to the food pantry! Come help us show our care and support to those who have been greatly affected by the pandemic! We will be taking all necessary measures to keep this event as safe and COVID-free as possible. Please contact officialuichcab@gmail.com or uic.hc.sfp@gmail.com for disability accommodations.
