Who We Are

For more than a decade, faith-based and other compassionate organizations in Chicago’s Northwest Suburbs have been teaming up to host Summer Suppers from May to September annually. This initiative is designed to provide nourishing meals for neighbors facing homelessness or food insecurity during the Summer months. Our aim is to foster a sense of community and support by offering a warm and inviting environment where everyone, regardless of circumstances or religious affiliation, can enjoy a wholesome meal. Join us as we come together across Chicago’s Northwest Suburbs to share not just food, but also companionship and a caring community.

Who We Serve

At Summer Suppers, our host sites serve those in Chicago’s Northwest Suburbs facing food insecurity without judgment or bias. We know that food insecurity may result from various and often unforeseen circumstances or circumstances outside of a person’s control. Our guests may be those experiencing homelessness or the threat of homelessness, single parents or families struggling to make ends meet, seniors and others on fixed incomes grappling with the rising cost of living, young people living on their own or the under- or unemployed. All are welcome at our table. The only thing we ask is that you find your own way to our host sites—no delivery service is available for Suppers. Automobile, bicycle, public transportation or on foot are options for most all of our host sites.
