One of Chicago’s largest and longest-operating food pantries, Lakeview Pantry’s mission is to eliminate hunger and poverty in our community by providing food to fill the basic need of hungry people; increasing the independence of our clients through self-help initiatives and other innovative programs; and raising awareness of hunger and poverty and working towards solutions to eliminate them.

************************************************************************************************

1 in 9 people on the North Side suffers from food insecurity.

With 3 food distribution programs that deliver more than 1.6 million pounds of food to our neighbors each year and social services that help clients achieve independence, Lakeview Pantry aims to end hunger for good. Join us to be part of the solution.

*************************************************************************************************

How Can You Help:

There is a greater need for the following items:

  • Canned Tuna, Chicken, and Beef
  • Cereal and Oatmeal
  • Ramen and Rice
  • Microwavable Mac & Cheese and Soup
  • Toiletries- Full and Sample Sizes

 All non-perishable, unexpired food items are appreciated!

Consider donating modest sizes. For example; several 24oz cans are preferable to one 64oz can, easier to carry home.
