NT supplemental grocery program

We wanted to reach out and update you on a supplemental grocery program Niles Township is providing for families who receive free or reduced lunches at school.
Assembled boxes of groceries will be available to qualifying families from 11:00AM to 1:30PM on both Tuesday, March 17, and Wednesday, March 18 at 8300 Lehigh Avenue in Morton Grove.  Families should come one of these days as each box includes a week’s worth of groceries. In addition to this new “Pop-Up Pantry,” supplemental boxes of groceries will also be available for distribution at the rear of the Niles Township Food Pantry (behind our Township building at 5255 Lincoln Avenue, Skokie) between 6:00-7:00PM on Wednesday, March 18.

Groceries to be in the boxes include: peanut butter, trail mix, canned chicken, tomato soup, canned vegetables, canned beans or vegetarian chili, spaghetti sauce, pasta, dried fruit, dried beans, brown rice, juice, water, crackers, and cereal bars. Dates and times for supplemental food distribution for the following week will be announced at a later time.
