Who We Are.

Accredited by Charity Navigator, and honored at the White House, Outreach is a 501(C)(3) charity which has packaged and distributed 580 million nutritious meals to the hungry since 2004.

 
Our local affiliate, Feed6 is a growing movement that has brought dozens of partner organizations and thousands of volunteers together to produce millions of meals since 2012 for hungry and food insecure children, families, seniors, and veterans right here in the Chicagoland area.
 

Family Pantry Pack Program

Meal packaging has never been easier or safer! Now you and your family can package hundreds of meals for food-insecure neighbors safely at home.
Outreach ships you 4 delicious meal varieties, already pre-bagged. Simply assemble the pantry pack boxes and place 7 meal bags in each. Entrees include apple-cinnamon oatmeal, deluxe macaroni and cheese, rice and beans, and tomato-basil pasta. Each bag contains 6 meal portions - for a total of 42 per pack. Altogether, you will prepare 12 pantry packs - a total of over 500 meals - to gift to your favorite charities or food pantries.
 
The Creative Joy of Giving.

Now, for the fun. Make each pack special - adding little touches, small gifts, cards, photos, inspiring messages, seasonal ornamentations, perhaps even decorating the box with crayon or sharpie art, or add something tasty from their own pantry - essentially using the Pantry Box as a blank canvass for imaginatively expressing your creativity and giving heart - and rendering each box a work of art.
 
A Lasting, Shared, Affordable Memory

With your tax deductible gift to Outreach of $300 you will receive all the supplies and instructions to pack 12 pantry boxes. And this will be a shared family holiday experience yielding a lifetime of memories. .You can even power it up, by linking to other households in your extended family through a ZOOM Pantry Packing Party!
 
At .59 cents a meal, a small gift of time and money for this gratefully-received gift of life.

With our signature Outreach Pantry Pack Program,      you and your family will share an uplifting, spirited, giving volunteer experience – all in the comfort and safety of your own home.

​Hunger on the Rise

Now more than ever Americans are in need of assistance with basic necessities such as food. There has been a dramatic increase in hunger right here in the United States over the past three years. Government programs that focus on food assistance have seen a major increase. 18.6 million children receive food stamp benefits and nearly 51.4% of Americans will live in poverty at some point in their lives before reaching age 65. Outreach & FEED6 Programs realizes that hunger lies within our borders as well as outside of them, and we want to make a positive impact on these startling statistics.

The good news is that FEED6 has packed millions of meals that have all been distributed to local food banks and pantries, with more meal packaging events scheduled every month. Now is the time to realize hunger can affect anyone, not just a tiny village in a foreign country somewhere across the ocean, but our very own co-workers, friends, and neighbors.
