We have loved hosting summer art and cooking programs for local families! At WSCP, we recognize that there are needs that go beyond food, so we offer support services for families to thrive all summer long. We have been hosting art and cooking classes for children to participate in and learn. To learn more about the impact of these programs check out our feature in https://lnkd.in/g_y57MnR

Our goal: a community without hunger
About us
West Suburban Community Pantry (WSCP) is dedicated to providing food for those facing food insecurity, educating the donor community about existing needs, and supporting advocacy efforts for the hungry. WSCP works hard to encourage volunteerism and the sharing of resources. The Community Pantry operates year round serving the residents of DuPage and Will County. The Community Pantry’s goal is for clients to receive at least 136 pounds of nutritionally-balanced food each month, including meat and dairy. Last year, WSCP distributed 1.3 million pounds of food and served 40,000 persons, one-third of whom were children. You can learn more about the Community Pantry at www.wcpinc.org or by joining our Facebook community at www.facebook.com/westsuburbancommunitypantry/. If you're looking to arrange an employee engagement event, want to host a fundraiser on our behalf, or subscribe to our newsletter, you can reach out to us at 630.948.8132.

Our Front Lobby is looking fantastic! Shout out to our Front Lobby Coordinator, Sam for setting up these decorations. At WSCP we are proud of our commitment to inclusion for all who visit. Did you know that at WSCP we communicate with our neighbors in 27 different languages through our usage of ILA Pros? It is one of the ways that we continue our work to break down barriers to food assistance.

Today we celebrate Juneteenth as we commemorate the end of slavery in the United States. We celebrate the joy and resilience of Black Americans while recognizing the need for further commitment to combat anti-Black racism. As a reminder, today our administrative offices are closed and tomorrow we will have adjusted shopping hours.
