Join us for the Meals in the Meantime Five-Year Anniversary Gala, a formal evening of celebration, inspiration, and impact as we honor the partners, volunteers, and supporters who have helped us fill the food gap with nourishment and dignity across the Chicagoland south suburbs. This special event marks five years since our first pantry on May 27, 2021, and serves as both a celebration of our collective impact and a critical fundraiser to support the acquisition of fresh, healthy, high-quality food for the communities we serve. When you purchase a ticket or table, you are not just attending a gala, you are joining the village we are building to fight food insecurity.
