The holidays should be a time of warmth and comfort, but for many Chicago families, this season can bring added stress as they struggle to put food on the table. With rising living costs and recent changes to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits, many households in Chicago and across the nation are facing increased food insecurity.
This holiday season, Pearson Realty Group is once again proud to host our Annual Food Drive in collaboration with PRG Management, to support Greater Chicago Food Depository and help fight hunger across Chicago. We’re collecting canned and non-perishable food donations right here at our office, and every item you bring makes a difference for families in need.
