Thank You, Southern Illinois Heroes!

We are so, so grateful to all of the heroes who have helped us provide more than 20,000 meals to our community! Now we're gearing up to focus on our returning members, so this is the last week we'll be providing public pick up meals. Come by the Club (250 N. Springer) to sign your youth up for membership and attend our safety orientation from 8/17/2020 - 8/21/2020, and don't forget we're here as a remote learning facility for your fall semester. Stay safe and we'll see you soon!
