Get a Head Start on Your 2025 Plan for Giving

DuPage Township asks community to support Year of Giving campaign.

The DuPage Township Food Pantry can help meet the hunger needs of our community but needs assistance with addressing other basic needs.

It is with this thought in mind that the Township is launching its year of giving, a monthly request of themed donations.

Local businesses, community groups, families and individuals wanting to help are encouraged to adopt a month in 2025. Please email for more information or to claim a month/theme.
