Supporting the Illinois Valley Food Pantry
As we head into November—a season centered on gratitude, generosity, and community—we are pleased to continue our November 2025 Jeans Day Donation initiative in support of the Illinois Valley Food Pantry.
Jeans Day is a simple yet meaningful way for our team to give back to the local community. By making a small donation, employees are invited to wear jeans while directly helping families and individuals in our area who rely on the Food Pantry for essential nutrition and support.
Why the Illinois Valley Food Pantry Matters
The Illinois Valley Food Pantry serves as a critical resource for our community, especially during the holiday season when demand continues to rise. Donations help provide:
Nutritious food for local families and seniors
Emergency assistance for individuals facing food insecurity
Support for children and households during the colder months
Every contribution—no matter the size—helps ensure that neighbors in need have access to healthy meals.
