"The need for those who can't find a way to put enough food on their table, especially healthy protein, is continuing to grow. It is critically important that we increase the number of people we reach with our ‘Poultry to Pantries’ program," said Bob Tucker, HRN Board Member

‘Poultry to Pantries Day’ is another important reminder that food insecurity has no boundaries. It is the day when 160,000 pounds of frozen 10 lb. packages of chicken are distributed to almost one hundred food pantries, soup kitchens, and shelters throughout Chicagoland to help lessen hunger and provide much needed protein to food insecure households.
“Each ½ pound of chicken equals one serving of healthy protein. The need is so great most of the chicken is served that evening or within a few days,” said Kerry Smith, Director of Development at HRN.
