Loaves & Fishes Community Services held their annual gala to raise awareness around food insecurity in the Chicagoland area. ABC7’s Dionne Miller emceed the event at Butterfield Country Club in Oak Brook, surrounded by community members supporting one of the largest food pantries in Illinois.

The nonprofit serves more than 8,000 people each week, supplying them with fruits, vegetables, and more. Through these meals and their CARES program, they fulfill their mission of providing healthy food and impactful programs to promote self-sufficiency.

Their goal, made possible by fundraising events like these, is to end hunger and transform lives.
