What to donate: Drop off non-perishable food, toiletries and clothing for all ages.

Where to donate: Collections will be held from 9 a.m. to noon on the last Sunday of the month throughout the summer: June 25, July 30, August 27, September 24 and October 29. Drop off items at the main entrance to the Market – look for the Skokie Commission on Family Services banner.

Feed My Starving Children

FMSC has committed to producing more meals this year than ever before. But they need more volunteers to step up to help them get these meals packed!

Their volunteer schedule has lots of open spots this summer. Grab a group and join us to turn hunger into hope with your own two hands! The FMSC volunteer experience is fun, family-friendly and lifechanging.

 Please note: Everyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult (an adult is someone 18 years of age or older).
