  • Did you know, 1 in 5 Chicago households are experiencing food insecurity? That's an alarming statistic that needs our attention. Members of the BRC Management team spent the morning volunteering at the Greater Chicago Food Depository. Together, we worked to pack donated items into smaller quantities for distribution at local food pantries throughout Cook County. Our group repacked 3,848lbs of frozen food, which is 3,206 meals! We had a wonderful day and we're grateful to the Depository for hosting us. Want to get involved? Take Action: https://lnkd.in/gmKNZir Need assistance?
