GCFD acts as the hub for a network of more than 700 food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters and other programs. These programs provide food where it\u2019s most needed. They also address the root causes of hunger. Public benefits outreach and job training programs offer support for our neighbors to overcome poverty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the face of hunger in our community has changed, the Food Depository has evolved. Their programs address the specific needs of diverse groups, including children, older adults and veterans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By taking hunger off the table, they enable families to focus on other priorities, like education, growth and security. GCFD enables communities to face their challenges with confidence. Today and in the long term, providing nutritious food is an investment in health and hope for our neighbors and our community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in joining us in our volunteer efforts, please contact us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>St. Jude Children&#8217;s Research Hospital<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3413\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/atochicago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/service_stj@2x-1-3413x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atochicago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/service_stj@2x-1-3413x1024.jpg 3413w, https:\/\/atochicago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/service_stj@2x-1-300x90.jpg 300w, https:\/\/atochicago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/service_stj@2x-1-768x230.jpg 768w, https:\/\/atochicago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/service_stj@2x-1-1536x461.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/atochicago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/service_stj@2x-1-2048x614.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 3413px) 100vw, 3413px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2012, the Fraternity has been supporting and raising funds for St. Jude, primarily through the annual \u201cSt. Jude Run\/Walk to End Childhood Cancer.
